This weeks poem - Grumpy Grouch

There's a grumpy little grouch,
and he gets inside of me.
I don't like him being there!
I don't like his company!
He makes me groan and grizzle
and go thumping with my feet.
He makes me grouch and grumble
at everyone I meet!
He makes my face all growly
and my lips go poking out!
And he will not let me whisper,
he will only let me Shout!

But....this grumpy little grouch 
doesn't hang around for long.
He'll vanish like a raindrop
when I sing a happy song!

This weeks poem...

The Leaves on the Trees
(to the tune of "The Wheels on the Bus")
The leaves on the trees turn orange and red
orange and red, orange and red
The leaves on the trees turn orange and red
All through the town.
The leaves on the trees come tumbling down
tumbling down, tumbling down
The leaves on the trees come tumbling down
All through the town.
The leaves on the ground go swish, swish, swish
Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish,
The leaves on the ground go swish, swish, swish
All through the town.
