Poetry
Inspiring the imagination through words
Connected words evoking emotion
Sunlight and Snow
Draw me inside
Where sunlight and snow collide
To the trees towering high
The scent of pine
Drifting by
Stepping into golden haze
Icy diamonds dance ablaze
Still the soul
As silence comes alive
And the mind begins to breathe
Children's songs to make them smile
Poetry is an enjoyable way to inspire children about life's wonders. You may like to share some of our favourites with your little explorers.
Super Starfish
I'm a little starfish happy as can be
I move along the shore and the bottom of the sea
I love the sand and the sand loves me
Oh I'm a little starfish as happy as can be!
Yellow Duck
I have a yellow duck and he swims in the bath
He bobs up and down and he makes me laugh
With a quack and a flap and a cheeky grin
I lift him up and drop him back in... splash!!!
Mountain Peak
I see a mountain and it's really high
I see a mountain and it's reaching to the sky
Look up at the mountain and what can you see?
I see a mountain looking back at me
Beautiful Butterfly
Say hello to the butterfly
Flying low and flying high
On the flowers, in the sky
Say bye bye to the butterfly
Wobbly Jellyfish
I see a jellyfish floating in the sea
It looks happy and it's smiling back at me
Wibble to the left and wobble to the right
Oh the jellyfish is such a funny sight!
Wiggly Worm
I'm a wiggly wiggly worm
I love to wriggle and squirm
I'm pink and long so sing along
I'm a wiggly wiggly worm
Pea Pod
I’m a little pea pod swinging in the air
I have curly arms and nice green hair
When the time is right, my pod goes POP!
And you can see I’m full of peas right up to the top!
Gobble gobble!
Slow Snail
There’s a snail in the garden with his house on his back
See his slimy trail and his long shiny track
His long wiggly eyes are looking all around
He moves slowly down the path not making a sound
I wonder where he's going
I don't really know
But one things for sure
He's going really slow!
