Some Fun ABCs

An apple for you to eat and taste,

Bananas too, don't let them waste.

Cats who make a purrfect sound,

Dogs that are also called a hound.

Easter Eggs that we like to taste,

Fresh fruit and cream, don't go to waste

Grass that's fresh all over the place.

Hamsters that run around a wheel,

Italian food; Lasagne is their meal.

Jumbo Jets we see soar really high,

Kites that fly way up into the sky.

Lions and tigers are a big type of cat,

Mangos so fresh nothing nicer than that.
Nettles outside are prickly; don't feel,

Onions add a lovely taste to your meal.

Pancakes are the best, tastiest treat,

Quick as in fast; better get to a seat.

Rainbows are pretty after a storm,

Supper's super - it keeps you warm.
Talk is when people speak together,

Umbrela's are needed for rainy weather.
Vases are filled with flowers to show,

Water is useful - it helps flowers grow.
X-Rays are to check our bones are okay,

Your welcome is a polite thing to say.
Zoo is a place that animals are kept,

now sweetie I think it's time that you slept!

Author notes

Dunno if this is what you are looking for...

For ages 3-6 I'd say.
Just to read to them before bed or whatever
Can change the ending as wish.

    It isn't what you write about but how well you use the ABCs and you did a real good job with them.
    Besides I love good rhyming poems especially if they flow well. nicely done.
    Thank you for your entry and good luck in the contest

    I really liked this poem. I like the style of ABCs. it would be such a cute poem to read a child before bedtime. Hehe. It's very colourful and meaningful as well as educational. It teaches the children many things. Great idea!

    A fun educational read, I am impressed with this poem, a great piece to be added to any childs poetry book...and it feels like it should have some music written for it

    Engaging and endearing...wonderful poem

    You definitely rose to this challenge. It's a fun piece that definitely helps children with their ABC's. Have you thought about possibly illustrating it to turn it into a children's book? I think it would make a great story to read aloud. >pixxie<

    Oh, how I wish I'd had this to read to my niece when she was little! She was a typical Barney groupie, and while anything that wasn't about a purple dinosaur would have been great in my opinion, I really think would have kept her attention.

    I really enjoyed this, as it's very different from what I'm used to reading here on AP. Thanks so much for the smile!

    Best wishes,

    This is the perfect peom for

     any age to read...I actually

    giggled all the way through because

    of such an uncommon theme which

    is really nice to see sometimes ~
