Ickle sez: "Shoes "
Ickle now has grown for sure
he's not a baby any more.
He has some pounds he'll have to lose
and it's hard keeping him in shoes.
Ickle sez: "Asthma"
Ickle's asthma is a bind'
He's finding it a bit unkind,
running brings him to his knees
and then he gets that rotten wheeze.
Ickle sez: "Swim"
Ickle's doing well at school.
and he loves swimming in the pool
his teachers keep an eye on him
because they say it's sink or swim.
Ickle sez: "Japanese"
Ickle's japanese is fine
he's practicing it all the time
and when he babbles it out loud
then grandad John is very proud.
Ickle sez: "Mouse"
Nana just saw a mouse in the house,
and Ickle just thinks she just wanted it dead.
But Ickle has seen it and thinks that it's cute
and said it should only be given the boot.
Ickle sez: "Poems"
Ickle's poems are now on line
I'm getting better all the time
but no matter what I'm on
they're not as good as Aussie John.
He says that I'll improve in time
and I'll get better with my rhyme,
but my tempo's still a mess
and that's the thing I must address.
Ickle sez: "Chick"
This week our hen had chickens
while I was home alone
so looks as though I'm gonna
have a "Tweety" of my own.
