December Poems
The Present
What's in the box?
What can it be?
I'll try and guess,
Now let me see.
A doll, a truck, some building blocks.
A hat, a scarf, some warm red socks.
What's in the box?
What can it be?
I'm only sure that it's for me!
Wild Whales
A whale is a mammal, that lives in the sea.
No other animal is quite as big as he.
When he comes up for air,
Water shoots out his spout.
So graceful, this giant jumping in and out.
Gingerbread Children
Gingerbread children
Stand in a row.
Very good children
Always you know.
They never will jump
Or kick or leap,
Or start to cry when
it's time to sleep.
They never run off
Or look around.
And no one has heard
Them make a sound.
Gingerbread children
Are fine to meet,
But, much better still
They're good to eat.
