Please don’t spit

 

 

I am Susie the pig

And I think it is rude to spit.

It doesn’t look very nice and

If everyone did this

It would be like skating on ice.

A friend of mine

Called Freddy the Frog,

Saw someone spitting in the pond.

This is a place that is his home,

Along with all the fish and ducks

Who keep their habitat very clean.

He could not believe

His eyes when he saw

Someone spitting in his home.

My opinion is this,

What if

I spat everywhere I went,

All over the fields

Or in my sty?

What if

I spat in someone’s eye?

I couldn’t imagine doing that,

I must admit.

But, let me tell you about

The chocolate cat

Who lives next door,

He licks himself

Whilst lying on the floor.

He is very vain

But I must admit,

I have never seen him spit.

Have you brushed your teeth yet?

I rubbed my eyes

As I jumped out of bed.

”Brush your teeth,”

My mother said.

I opened my curtains wide,

I could not believe my eyes.

I saw a very large frog

Absolutely full of spots

Floating.

Or wait!

Could it be a dog?

Is it barking? Or is it croaking?

Then came that voice,

“Have you brushed your teeth yet?”

Then the frog stopped and pushed his nose,

Against the glass,

“What time is it?” he cried.

“I left my watch at my bed side.”

My mother then ran up the stairs

I waved goodbye to spotty frog,

He started barking like a dog.

It sounded very much like,

“Have you brushed your teeth yet?”

Eat your fruit and veg

 
 Sometimes I have a lot of food On a very large plate,
 Sometimes I cannot wait To eat my fruit and veg,
 I always know It will help me grow,
 Strengthen my bones From tip to toe,
 But sometimes I get fed up With my fruit and veg,
 I push my plate away Then I hear my father say,
 “You wont grow up to reach the stars,
 Or have the strength Of six spacemen.”
 I had to remind him then, That I’m a teddy bear
 “That is no excuse,” he said.
 “You still have to eat Your fruit and veg!”
