Budding Poet

Spencer's latest project at school was to compile 20 of his poems and turn them into a book. Here are some of the poems from his book, along with what type of poem it is:

Limerick:

There was a man with a big mustache
So he never could go for a dash
For he would trip
And his sleeve would rip
And he would have a very big gash
