IF I WERE IN CHARGE OF THE WORLD

If I were in charge of the worldI’d cancel broccoliBedtimes at nineTests and traffic

If I were in charge of the worldThere would be more market daysMore allowance moneyAnd a robot to make a 3DS

If I were in charge of the worldYou wouldn’t have boredomYou wouldn’t have messyAnd no weekdaysOr “don’t eat that bowl of ice creamYou wouldn’t have to listen to them anyways

If I were in charge of the worldA three story vanilla ice creamWith chocolate and nuts would be breakfast

And every day you would get a giftAnd a boy who forgot his moneyAnd a boy who forgot to do his jobWould still be in charge of the world

IF I WERE IN CHARGE OF THE WORLD

If I were in charge if the worldI’d cancel morningsSchool and winterAnd don’t forget being grounded

If I were in charge of the worldThere would be more SaturdaysMore moneyAnd a butler to serve all my meals

If I were in charge of the worldYou wouldn’t have sicknessYou wouldn’t have boredomAnd no TuesdaysOr “Don’t eat the piece of pizzaYou don’t have to listen to them

If I were in charge of the worldA hotel with a water park Would be my very own roomAnd every day you would get a lot of moneyAnd a boy who didn’t eat his vegetables

And a boy who didn’t clean his roomCould still be in charge of the world

MY PET FISH

Your scalesAre a hard and shiny rainbowYour eyesAre a deep and dark black holeYour bodyIs a small and shiny paperclipYour finsAre a very little motor boatYour mouthIs a tiny version of a piranhaYour faceIs tiny and a gleaming shapeYour friendshipIs the best of all of the other things you do

DragonsFast, Fearsome

Flying, guarding, huntingClaws are razor sharp

Igniting, fighting, glidingFrightful, myth

Reptile

SNOWBOARDING DOWN A HILL

Snowboarding down a hillAs fast as can be Shredding on a ramp Just like Shawn White on TV

Snowboarding down a hillJust me and the boardGo flying in the airGliding like a bird

Snowboarding down a hillRiding like a rocketFlying by treesLeaving flames behind

Snowboarding down a hillShredding as good as everRipping the snow apartI’m goanna need a new board

Snowboarding down a hillAlmost done with the willRiding by jumpsJust ripping up my board

Snowboarding down a hillFlying like a planeJust landed at the bottomNow I think I’m all done for today

THINKING OF A POEM

Thinking of a poemIt’s really hard to doThinking of a poemI don’t even have a clue

Thinking of a poemYou’d have to be smartThinking of a poemIts goanna be a work of art

Thinking of s poem It’s a work in progressThinking of a poemIt’s as hard as chess

Thinking of a poemI’d rather write a storyThinking of a poemI don’t even have a category

Not thinking of a poemI just gave up the thoughtNot thinking of a poemI’d rather look at a dot

RIDING A BIKE

Riding a bikeIt’s as easy as pieRiding a bikeLet it touch the sky

Riding a bike Take it on a hikeRiding a bikeIt’s really easy to like

Riding a bikeIt’s easy to rideRiding a bike Just let it glide

Riding a bikeIt’s hard to learnRiding a bikeJust let the tires burn

Riding a bikeIt’s easy to buyRiding a bikeJust let it fly

SalamanderSlimy, tiny

Walking, hiding, springingA very little creature

Amphibian

SnowCold, white

Dropping, flying, formingGliding like a bird

Ice

LightningBolt, hot

Frying, falling, hidingIt’s full of energy

Energy
