Funny Bat Poems

The Bat by Theodore Roethke

By day the bat is cousin to the mouse.
He likes the attic of an aging house.

His fingers make a hat about his head.
His pulse beat is so slow we think him dead.

He loops in crazy figures half the night
Among the trees that face the corner light.

But when he brushes up against a screen,
We are afraid of what our eyes have seen:

For something is amiss or out of place
When mice with wings can wear a human face.

The Bat by Douglas Florian

The bat is batty as can be.
It sleeps all day in cave or tree,
And when the sun sets in the sky,
It rises from its rest to fly.
All night this mobile mammal mugs
A myriad of flying bugs.
And after its night out on the town,
The batty bat sleeps upside down.

Florian's lovley poems and paintings are perfect for reading
to kids at bedtime. Kids will love it...like me.

Dinner? - A poem about a Fly by Milou

Dear Ms. Spider....

I cannot come and dine tonight
You see, I don't have very good sight
Along with that I cannot choose
Which shoes and clothes that I should use
That's not all, I have a cold
And all my bones feel cranky and old

So you see it's not the day
Why don't we dine on Saturday?

Sincerely replied,
The Fly

The Snake - Snake Poem by Milou

Its scales reflect the evilness
Black, empty eyes do not confess
Its hiss is ironing my foot
I can’t move, I stuck, like a root

This snake that I’m describing now
Is slithering to me, and makes me frown
This time I know it, my death is near
And down my spine go goose bumps of fear

But when I look a bit closer at it
I note, it’s actually a snake of plastic

ICY QUESTION - animal poem by Milou

I live in an Icy place
Look like a butler from Elisabeth her grace
I swim and slide I march and glide
When I walk I leave a duck feet trace
What am I?

What am I? - animal poem

Swimming, slipping, sliding,
What am I describing?
A little bird
Of whom you’ve heard
Who also loves fish and diving

EASTER FOREVER by Milou

Imagine if Easter would last forever
You’d eat candy and chocolate everyday
And have Easter hunts, and be very clever
About where to hide your Easter prey

You’d be getting presents and toys
Eat millions of caramel ‘n’ cakes
You’d be filled with happiness and joy
When your parents start to bake

So Easter would rule forever
Pouring with billions of treats
Eat them like a beaver
And take care where you put your seat!

But after a while it gets boring and dull
The hiding, the finding, the partying and eating
So you’d get bored and so dreadfully full
That you’d look like a fat sheep bleating

So avoid the unpleasant
Still be happy today
That in all 12 months present
There is only ONE Easter day

Tree Tops

At the top of a tree

You can go on a spree

For there is room for at least 69

You have fun way up there

For a such place is rare

You might never find a place so fine

It's like the Queen's palace

(you'll never keep balance)

You can see everything from up there

Oh I love this place

Fit for the majesty her grace

Though it's only worth something for birds

Big Paws

Once upon a time there was
A cat with unusually big paws
Her feet were as big as a car's tires
And this is not what a cat desires

One day she was at home without any crew
'Cause her owner was away buying some shoes
Suddenly it happened something very surprising
Now the cat's feet were changing their sizing

First to the size of a window frame
(The cat already felt ashamed)
Then they grew to the size of a room
Then to the size of a house, and BOOM!!!!

The cat's feet had now EXPLODED!
(And the room was fully with foot-pieces loaded)
Now the poor cat got out of the room
And looked at its feet and shouted,"YAHOO!"

The cat's feet were back to normal size
And this she found was quiet a surprise
Her feet were back to the size of tires

And this she thought is what a cat desires

SNAKE PROBLEM - snake poems - poems about snakes

I have got a boa
Who's name is Annemarie

I found her, lying down
On a plain old prairie!

She is tame and very quiet
And doesn't even bite!
I think she'll need to go on diet,
For she's a tremendous sight!

Even though, she is so cool
She also has her bad sides
She sometimes is a bit of a fool
AND goes wild on rides


And one of the worst parts
(She might do it to you)
I swear it true I cross my heart
She squeezes you to glue!

Happy Birthday

A bird was flying past a prairie
When he spotted a little berry
This bird loves berries very much
He would try to get it with some luck

But a dog spotted it too
And his greed for a berry grew
When the bird saw the dog and the dog the bird
The made growls and groans that have been never heard

Suddenly they both start a fight
Behind a tree I was watching the sight
While they were fighting I took the chance
And this was really a big advance
I took the berry and gave it to
The person that I love

which is ......you!

The Sun and the Moon

The sun is shining in the sky
But the moon gives a sigh

He can’t light up the day
For the sun is in the way

But at night the moon shines bright
And the sun is out of sight

He was sleeping in his bed
And wasn’t angry to be said

That the moon is shining bright
In the black and gloomy night

Pets

dogs dig dirty dirt
they dirty down all the shirts
cats claw crunchy cakes
don't take cats for heaven´s sake!
birds build big bags
don't take birds those old hags
hamsters hate horrible hairdos
they will chew up all your shoes!!
toucans touch tall trees
toucans cost a lot of fee
frogs fake funny fools
frogs are very dangerous tools
lions like licking lollipops
he will eat you up like this - chop! chop!
so what animal now do you want
because this thought can really haunt...ME!!!Yay!!!!
an ol' and weak adult so what'd you say?"
it's all my fault? it was my idea?
ooh sorry pay!

A Dog

A dog was walking down the street
Who was looking for some meat
He was a very hungry fellow
And now he was about to bellow
Right then before he barked away
He smelled something a block away
He ran right after the wonderful smell
Smell of roasted beef and caramel
And when he came to the right place
He thought: Oh hammer harmful grace!!!
Cause where he stood was a butcher shop
And of course the door was locked
