1.Sounding my horn

 

I was zooming up the road

The other day

Saw you on the pavement

Walking towards me.

Put the window down

Gave a few loud hoots

Of my extremely loud horn

Stuck my arm out of the window hole, and waved.

 

Ah!  Oh dear!

Sorry if I startled you.

Made you jump.

Gave you a heart-attack.

Wrong person.

A genuine case of mistaken identity.

But, it can’t all be bad,

After all, you took the trouble to wave back

 

1.My sandwich box

I’ve got my sandwich box

That I take to school every day

But it’s more than a sandwich box

It’ really a mobile Biology lab as well

I keep all sort of things in there

Spiders, Daddy-long-legs, Cockroaches, Ants and Worms too.

But, only after I’ve eaten my dinner.

Despite all of Mum’s best cling-film efforts,

I don’t want to find any of those in my sandwich

I don’t think they’d taste very nice.

But, you can pull legs off the Spiders

Just to see how they cope

The same with Daddy-long-legs.

I think the Spiders won that one.

 

You can put your foot on a cockroach,

See how hard their shell is.  Hmm, not hard enough.

Ants running all over the place,

But not fast enough to evade my lethal Maths book

You can chop worms in two – see which way each half goes.

Dad says it’s a worm-like divorce, but without the money.

He seemed especially grumpy that day.
