Thanks Neville - feel free :lol: .

Nice Marty suggested the same thing. He's might use the poem for his kids' poetry classes. This started out as my first ever attempt at internal rhyme - which is why the words were simple. I went back to it some time later when I was stuck for something to write and realised it could make a kids' poem. Goes to show, never throw anything out! It's kinda like the old woman that swollowed the fly in a way..

Great one Heather, made me think of ''There was an old lady who swallowed a spider'', would make a great kids tale, better talk to Trish about publishing :P

Righto Sue, you're in charge of publicity, Neville can do illustrations and Trisha's in charge of publishing. Easy really! :lol:

A good leader knows how to delegate! :lol:

Sue between you and Bob I am cornered, blackmailed, reduced to tears, can't leave my house, must keep my clothes on at all times, watch for spy satellites. What's the world coming to? :cry:
