See a new poem here each week
My Best Friend by Abby Jenkins
Black and white
Thick and furry
Fast as the wind
Always in a hurry
Couple of spots
Rub my ears
Always comes when his name he hears
Loves his ball; it's his favorite thing
What's most fun for him? Everything!
Great big tongue that licks my face
Has a crate, his very own space
Big brown eyes like moon pies
He's my friend till the very end!
Get ready for the fun by making poetry part of your day today!
Print out a poem put it in your pocket, read and memorize it on the go. Don't forget to have fun!
