Welcome

This is my playground for poetry written for children with ideas and inspiration for writing your own poems. Come on in. Sit for a spell, have a cup of words to swirl around and make your own cup of poetry. I'm so glad you are here. I hope you'll find the Kingdom of Poetry a fun place to be.

Applesuace




Applesauce, applesauce,
Baby is eating applesauce.
Everywhere it’s
applesauce.

Applesauce in
Baby’s high chair.
It’s even dripped into his hair
applesauce.

Applesauce slipped
from Baby’s spoon,
splattered and sloshed
around the room.

It dripped on Baby’s bib
Kerr-splat!
Slurped from there
into his lap.

Then it smooshed
into his toes—
Wiggley, squiggly
Applesauce toes.

Finally, it plopped
on the floor.
Now Baby needs a bath
but he wants more…

Applesauce, applesauce.

  2. Thanks Linda,
    I think I've been bathed in applesauce myself a few times, at least it feels cool and smells sweet.
