Amy J Richardson Poems

Dragons don't eat without pause:
They peel their knights with their claws,
It's a bit of a fiddle,
But they suck out the middle,
...

In a secluded meadow of trees,
In a hive of a quite special kind,
Lives a curious family of bees,
That only the fortunate find.
...

Ludo is a whippet dog, the perfect family pet,
And when he was a puppy, he was sweet as you can get.
Now he is a charming soul, a gentle, calm old man,
Puppy was so playful, and exploring was his plan.
...

The wise old rabbit looks into the wind,
and over his ears it blows,
His eyes half shut, his whiskers flat,
as into his mind he goes.
...

Humans see rats in two ways, in darkness or in light,
The sweetest people of them all, or creatures of the night.
The rats thought it was time at last, for choices to be made,
'Let's call a moot! ' their leader said, to end this false charade.
...

Atlas was a lion,
With mighty long claws,
A huge shaggy mane,
And enormous paws,
...

A dormouse woke and scratched his head,
He'd slept a long duration,
'What could I possibly need, ' he said,
'After six months hibernation?
...

Well Mr Bumble Bee,
Had lots of friends to see,
And the time was almost here for taking flight
He wore his very best,
...

There once was a chicken called Peg,
Who laid me a hard boiled egg,
She just sat in the straw,
Having cooked it before,
...

Mrs. Bealsey Blunder,
Was all wrinkles, hair and warts.
And she had a face like thunder,
When the kids were playing sports.
