A young man from Montreal,
liked to play with his basketball.
He'd dribbled along the banks of the Nile
and lost himself in a crocodile.
Now the only thing to see
is that ball
wedged in a tree
and a smile
on the crocodile.
Oh my, it has been a crazy day. My sister just telephoned and said, "Do you know you haven't posted a poem for today?"
I didn't know, until she reminded me. So then I sat down to write, and of course, I came up blank. I opened my rhyming dictionary and started to write a limerick, but this ended up as a rhyming couplets instead. I apologize, this is what you get for today.
I've included two geographical locations in my poem. Can you write a poem that includes the name of your home town? Have fun writing. See you tomorrow.
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.
