Animal Umbrella

It is raining out, but I know what to do;

I shall make an umbrella out of animals two.

A snake will be the handle; a turtle on top,

and I will be dry ‘til the last drop stops.

Chicken Pox 

I itched all over, then broke out in little red spots,

“Congratulations,” mom said, “you have the chicken pox”.

For breakfast that morning she made some eggs,

and fried them on my head.

She told me to bathe using porridge instead of soap,

It made me feel like such a dope.

But I get to watch TV all day and eat ice cream sweet and cold,

Instead of going to school and doing what I am told.

When he got home, Dad said, “You need some special lotion, I think.”

It stopped the itching, but has turned me pink.
