4. “The Tiger”- Q & A Style Poetry

The tiger is stuck in a bush,

Why?

He cannot pull himself out,

Why?

His paws are not strong,

Why?

He is lazy at home,

Why?

He feels hunting at night is borrrrinnnng,

Why?

He would rather sleep at home,

Why?

He feels life is humdrum,

Why?

Because he doesn’t get paid!!!

5. “Winter”- Haiku Style Poetry

As the winter introduces snow,

The animals all doze off in hibernation,

Just like sloths.

As the wild animals roar,

The small animals run off like cattle,

Just like cowards.

7. “Covid”- Quatrain Style Poetry

Covid, Covid go away,

No one will give you an inn to stay in,

Why did you come anyway,

If no one will treat you as you say.

Covid, Covid you won’t get in,

We will put you in the bin,

You have committed a sin,

You shall burn in the kiln.

8. ” Home” – Ballad Style Poetry

I was bored at home,

Plus I was hungry,

But no food in there,

I took my wallet,

Went to the market,

Bought a nice bun,

And came back,

Very quickly indeed.

9. “School” – List Style Poetry

I go to school,

I see the same things,

Same canteen,

Same class,

Same trees,

Same field,

Same playground,

Same corridor,

Same staff room,

Same chairs,

Same desks,

Same computers,

Same teachers,

Same principal,

Same whiteboard,

What?

What’s that?

Is it children’s day?

Ha-ha,

No lesson today!

10. “Robot”- Cinquain Style Poetry

Robot

Smart Fast,

Beeping Rolling Creaking,

It’s Quicker than me,

Cyborg.
