WizzKid's latest poem......

The Race.

Nervously I stand behind the block
One whistle, two whistles and I’m on top
For a moment the world seems to freeze
Then the 3rd whistle causes the silence to cease

High over the glass water I soar
For a second it’s still and nothing more
With a minute splash I’m engulfed in
Under the water I stay as straight as a pin

As fast as I can, I race to the end
The crowd goes wild as I writhe and bend
Closer and closer to the wall I come
My legs and my arms start to go numb

The checkered flags rush up to greet me
Victory in my mouth tastes sweetly
I touch the wall and I cant swim on
But I don’t have to because I’VE WON.

Crafting away .........

Early yesterday evening Miss Tanzi came to me and asked ...... "PLEEEEESE can we make something together?" Being the crafty type, I like to keep the odd thing or two stored in the cupboard just in case I feel inspired ! So I pulled out some very inexpensive wooden photo frames and some left over mosaic tiles ........ and we started creating together.





Within an hour or so we had created four pretty frames and Miss Tanzi was extremely proud of her produce. She chose the colours and the placement of them.

The Weirdest Dream.

Last night I had the weirdest dream EVER! I was a lollipop man in the middle of the road. All of a sudden I saw the funniest looking cars coming towards me. Some had spikes for wheels, others had giant missile turrets and others had long treads. But wait there was more. A gigantic monster truck was headed straight at me! I really wanted to run, but I couldn't .... my feet were glued to the floor! Then I realized I had a stop sign. I held it up high but the cars kept coming! Then I looked at the sign I was holding, it didn't say STOP it said GO !! Luckily I had a pen. I tried to draw but it wouldn't work! The cars got closer and closer. So I just said " LORD TAKE ME NOW." The cars hit and I felt a huge thump! I woke up and found my baby sister jumping on me. I felt a whole lot better.
