With Christmas almost here, everything around you is, Christmas this and Christmas that, and as part of my funny poems for kids blogs that I like to do from time to time (I was a poet long before I was a storyteller), I thought now was a great time of year to publish one. So, let’s forget the shopping, the stress and the high street vampires trying to bleed us dry and just have a bit of a laugh. So this time my funny poem for kids is: A Poem That Has Nothing to do with Christmas.
A Poem That Has Nothing to do with Christmas
By Barry S. Brunswick
If I was a rabbit, think I’d hop it
If I was a dog, I’d feel ‘Ruff!’
If I was a horse, I’d see my ‘naaaybour’
If I saw a quack, I’d be a duck.

If I was a frog, I might well croak it
If I was a fish, I’d be so deep
If I was a snake, I’d throw a hissy fit
If I was a bird, I’d send a tweet.

If I was a mouse, I’d be so quiet
If I was an elephant, pack my trunk
Like a hyena, I’m always laughing
But like a camel, got the hump.

If I was a cow, I’d ‘mooove’ over
If I was a goat, I’d be a kid
If I was a monkey, I’d be a cheeky one
If I was a parrot, I’d be sick.

If I was a rat, I’d be so dirty
If I was an owl, not give a ‘hoot’
If I was a bat, I’d be a blind one
If I had no hair, I’d be a coot.

If I was a crab, I’d be a hermit
If I was a fisher, be a king
If I was a bee, I’d probably ‘buzz’ off
If I was a cricket, I would sing.

If I was a peacock, I would strut round
If I was a rooster, I would crow
If I was an ox, I’d be a strong one
If I was a whale ‘thar she blows.’

If I was a sheep, I’d be bloomin’ ‘baaaarmy’
A tick party, needs a host
If I was a flea, I’d jump inside your ear
If I was a butterfly, on toast.

If I was a flower, I’d have some power
If I was a fairy, I’d believe
If I was a dragonfly, I’d breathe fire
If I was a tree, I’d have to leave.
