A journey in books
As a child I loved to read, and so as national poetry day is here this is my little dedication to reading and the importance of reading to little kid’s
A journey in books |
I love the taste of gingerbread cause of a little manI flew above the roof tops in search of Peter pan I followed little babes when lost in scary woodI carried bow and arrow‘s to be like Robin hood I shouted Rumpelstiltskin‘s name,a hundred times at leastI realized that love was blind when beauty kissed the beast I tried to tell the emperor that he had nothing onI cried when ugly duckling became a graceful swan I didn’t like that princess who fused about a peaI sailed with owl and pussy cat,when they were all at sea I thought that little Goldilocks in fact was rather rudei faced a wolf to help a girl, her name, red riding hood I feared when old sly fox put red hen upon his backI climbed a giant’s beanstalk, and met a lad named Jack I danced with Cinderella before she left the ballI always knew dear snow white was the fairest of them all I prayed those little piggies wouldn’t open up their doorI couldn’t sleep for beauty,for all she done was snore I tried to walk with puss in boots,to get to London townI called up to Rapunzel,as hair came tumbling down and every friend I’ve spoke of, i met within a pageand grew to love each one of them,when i was just your age |
