List Poems

This week we have been looking at List Poems - which are made with rhyming, commas, a little bit of silliness and a lot of funniness.

Here are some of the list poems we looked at this week. Enjoy and have a laugh just like we did! The last one 'That explains it!' Is one of the poems we used as inspiration for our list poems.





That explains it!


I went to the doctor he x-rayed my head
he stared for a moment and here’s what he said
‘’ It looks like you’ve got a, barrel in there
an xbox, an airplane, a peach,a pear,
And also an ape, an arrow, a shoe,
An old pair of sunglasses, and some fake doggy doo,
A t-shirt, some shorts, a table and chairs,
Some salmon, a camora,some old underwear,
A penny, a pencil, pen,
A hairy canary, a hammer, hen,
an oven, a bomb, and a duck,
A missile, a bicycle, a truck
With all that junk that you have in your head
it’s kind of amazing you got out of bed!”

I went to the doctor,
he x-rayed my head.
He stared for a moment
and here’s what he said.
“It looks like you’ve got a peanut in there,
an castle, a dinosaur, a pirate, a pear.
I also see something that looks like a shoe,
some maids in a kitchen and a fake tea do,
a crayon, a leaf, some pencils, a chair,
a potato, a mat, some old underwear,
a paper, a scraper, some bottles, a pen,
a triangle, a window,a small baby hen,
some tigers, a plier, a person, a duck,
a bag, and a big red truck.
With all of the junk inside of your head,
It’s kind of amazing you could get out of bed!
