The what if poem
As I lay in my bed a
little whatif crawled into my head.
Whatif I am late to
school?
What if my
classmates think I'm a fool?
What if I'm not in
science on time?
What if my locker is
covered in grime?
What if I dirty my
brand knew tie?
What if I fall over
and start to cry?
What if I lose all
my important math books?
What if my
classmates give me nasty looks?
What if my teachers
are very mean?
What if my face
turns bright
lime green?
Wait I think theyv'e
left me alone, to go and find another home.

Guernsey
Not many people know
about Guernsey
You try to tell them
and they think your zany
Now listen closely
and listen now
I will start with a
guernsey cow.
They give us milk
and builds up our bones
But they are real
fussy and take over our homes
Now they may be
animals but their clever you know
They sleep in our
beds and make us feel low
At the dead ofd
night one by one
They creep into
houses when the owners are gone
They eat all our
foods and take back their milk
They wear your best
pyjamas
Yes! The ones made
of silk
So don't be stupid
next time you see a cow
Tell them you know
their plan
And tell them now!
But next on my list
lets not delay
Are the tomatoes you
see
Yes, thats what I
say.
They are evil you
know you better beware
Or will be in for a
scare!
Thet are true
Guernsey tomatoes, with the accent you know
But if you feed
them a little they grow and grow
They take your
bicycles and your cars
They fight with the
cows and have massive wars
So next time you
come to Guernsey
Think again go to
Jersey (boooooooooo!)
