Koala

The koala bear all cute and cuddly, Is the victim of mistaken identity. Not a bear but a marsupial in fact, Relative of the kangaroo and the wombat. ©️2021 Elizabeth Wrobel

Monkey

HooHoo, HeeHee, Hey there, Mr. Monkey. I've always wondered when you make that sound, Is it serious or are you just monkeying around? ©️2021 Elizabeth Wrobel

Honeybee

Bzzz Bzzz goes the honeybee, So confused and so busy. It's mistaking you and me, For it's pollen source again I see. ©️2021 Elizabeth Wrobel

A Tiny Bird

A tiny bird, A soft humming heard, But it's gone so fast, In a ruby red flash. ©2019 Elizabeth Wrobel

Snakes

Snakes slither and they hiss, Be careful, some snakes are poisonous. Some are black, some are green, some are red, Some snakes are friendly, some we dread. Some snakes can make good pets and have a place in the home, Me, I'll stick to reading about them and leave those slippery creatures alone. ©Elizabeth Wrobel

Acrostic: Frog

Flipping and flopping from log to log, "Ribbit, ribbit," croaks the young frog. Over the lily pads with a hip and a hop, Go, frog, go! Don't stop! Don't stop! ©Elizabeth Wrobel

Hamsters

Hamsters Hamsters are cute and furry, They run around in your cage, But their eyesight is still a blurry, They will eat and climb until they die of age. Hamsters go “squeak squeak!” Then drift off to sleep, When they wake up they stuff food in their cheek, Then dig in their bedding down deep.

Three Cardinals

I saw three cardinals outside today. One stayed but two flew away. The passing glimmer, brightly colored red, Right before my eyes as they flew above my head. Headed toward the feeder, perhaps for a snack, The third one I watched jump from branch to branch. ©Elizabeth Wrobel

Ladybug, Ladybug

Ladybug, ladybug, crawling up and down, Starting over again and turning back around. Once more my finger you crawl across, Ladybug, ladybug, are you lost? ©2018 Elizabeth Wrobel

The Lion

The Lion The lion has a golden main and under it a clever brain He lies around and idly roars and lets the lionesses do all the chores. Megan McEwan. Age 9

Birds

Birds Birds in the bird bath, What a splash they make. Tail feathers, wing feathers Shake, shake, shake. Birds at the feeder, Steady on their feet. Red birds, yellow birds Eat, eat, eat. Birds in the tree tops, On the beach, in the sky. Birds run, birds wade, birds Fly, fly, fly. Birds that live […]

I met a Butterfly

I Met a Butterfly I met a butterfly today Sitting upon a tree. When I said, "Good Morning," it said nothing back to me. I asked what it was doing, But it refused to tell. I asked if it was tired Or wasn't feeling well. And then it opened up its wings, As though to […]

Wolves

Wolves Mesmerizing, magical, and mysterious creatures; Willful, wild wanderer of windy winding mountains; Intelligent, sometimes inane, defiantly inaccessible, Even-tempered, hopefully everlasting, and extraordinary; Howling, whining, yipping, or yelping, A wolf is like a lone cloud on a full moon's night- He'll dance into your life, your heart, Then leap right out, Making you wonder "Was […]

Backward Jack

Backward Jack I had a puppy some years back, who went by the name of "Backward Jack." Now, Backward Jack was a silly pup, If I said, "down boy," he'd get up. When he was in, he wanted out. He was confused without a doubt. When Backward Jack and I played ball, he never brought […]
