Bubble Story

Here's a fat thing, a bubble.
Air bobs it.  It flirts with light,
sucks blue from the sky.

It wants to wander, but where?
There's no wind to show a way.
Without a goal to vex it, 
it stays a toy, untroubled.

A dog comes nosing, smelling soap,
then yelps and shies.
The bubble spits a rainbow as it dies.

Sean’s Big Mouth

Sean, Sean, swallowed a fire
Swallowed a bath to put it out
Sean, Sean, opened wider
Swallowed the bathtub, swallowed the house

Sean, Sean, Sean got tired
Mother said It’s time for bed
Sean, Sean, Sean expired
When he swallowed his own head.

The Happy Little Girl and the Dragon

She had wandered around for hours and hours
Till she was thoroughly lost amongst the enormous flowers

When the dragon flew overhead
She didn’t know where she was
Or how to get home
But she wasn’t worried.
The dragon knew where she was.
