I have been doing short poems from observations of my youngest grandson between birth and his now 5th year.We call him "Ickle" as that is how he always says (little).
I'm sending you my grandson's poems
I know he"ll give me hell
for now he says he's known as
" Ickle aussie john "as well
|
|
Ickle sez: " Dam "
My nan says dam, he wet the pram
My mommie is not happy
I think that with the nap I took
I should have took a nappy.
|
|
Ickle sez: "Stares"
Aussie john's not being fair
he says he likes to muss my hair
But now I'm big and say "Who cares"
and then I push him down the stares.
|
|
Ickle sez: " Chat"
My lubbly mummie told me that
I could go & talk on chat
but first I had to comb my hair
Well I did'nt So there.
|
|
Ickle sez: "Puppee"
My auntee says " lord whats that smell"
then starts to act real huffy
I say "It wasn't me, I think
it must have been the puppee.
|
|
Ickle sez: "Puddle"
My nanna says" Who left that puddle
on my kitchen floor,?" I said "Our doggie
really has a lot
to answer for.
|
|
Ickle sez: "Handieman"
Why is it that the older person never understands answer for.
just what makes it difficult for me to wash my hands.
I've looked about and I found out
and here's the reason why.
"There's someone going round and
putting all the taps too high ,"
|
|
Ickle sez: "Spotty"
My puppy's name is spotty
some people think he's crude
but that is just because they've seen him
help me eat my food.
|
|
Ickle sez: "I Feel pretty"
Spotty watches over me
my face is always clean
because he always licks it
after we have had ice-cream.
|
|
Ickle sez: "Flushed"
The flushing of our toilet bowl
I find is rather cool
and that's because I find
that I no longer need the stool.
|
|
Ickle Sez: "Plate fate"
My nana's plate does not look great
I know the reason why
the distance that it falleded
was little bit too high.
|
|
Ickle sez: " Christmas"
Give a cheer the tree is here
and I'm a happy lad
and daddy can't believe that for a year
I not been bad.
My letta went to Santa claus
and It was very brief (it said)
"All i want for christmas is my two front teef"
