School Poems
On this page are a few of Andrea's SCHOOL POEMS.
BATGIRL’S DISGRACE
Auntie Betty pulls her cloak on
And the mask - the one with ears
Then she flies out of the classroom
Fighting back a flood of tears
All the teachers in the playground
Wag their fingers at the girl
If only she had done her homework
FIRST, before she saved the world
Need calamity prevention?
Sorry, Batgirl’s in detention
Could do better
Isn’t bothered
Doesn’t even try
Disrupts the class
Is always last
Makes other children cry
What have you got to say for yourself?
You’re bad
You’re mad
And you’re rude.
Wow! Thanks Mum.
That’s brilliant.
I told you I’d improve.
MISS PICKY
However good your work is
However neat the page
It won’t escape Miss Picky
In a criticising rage
However clever the story
A Booker winner for sure
Forget to put the date in
And detention will be yours
The words don’t seem to matter
The only things that count
Are underlining titles
And never crossing out
So why is she so picky?
Just think. It’s obvious, man.
Miss Picky can’t write for toffee
And she’s jealous that you can.
DUMBO
My teacher’s got very big ears.
When he stomps into class we all cheer.
We continue our clapping
Each time they start flapping
No wonder he’s always in tears
MISS NITS
My teacher is not very nice
Her hair is infested with lice
When my mother complained
The headmaster explained
She was all he could get for the price
