I was delighted at being runner up in the children`s poetry competition in 2018
Mr. Platts Keep Fit Class
Mr Platt`s not happy that
School dinners are so full of fat
No more burgers, greasy pies
He yells `you wimps must exercise!`
Laura Crows don`t pick your nose
Just punch the air with deathly blows
Samuel Pips you stink of chips
Six jumping jacks, four forward flips
Martha Brown put iPhone DOWN
Lunge to each side, don`t whine or frown
Sandra Meek not smelling sweet
From five cartwheels and reeking feet
Daniel Watts with oozing spots
No fizzy pop just twenty squats
Gordon Bart did you just fart
That eggy whiff just won`t depart
Donald West with stringy vest
Pull knobbly knees into your chest
Mathew Quinn with double chin
Dive through the air like a javelin.
Out of breath and feeling rough
If you don`t like it - That`s just tough!
