This is a very different sort of poem, it will grow with every guess you make. For every guess I will write a few lines. So, what is it about? This drawing here, made by my niece? What is it? Take a guess, do it, put it in a comment! Watch the poem grow, hopefully the first commenter doesn't guess right LOL, or else it will be an extremely short poem!
This was a lot of fun, I hope you liked it too. I'll solve the mystery now.
This is a SPIDER.
It has an enormous amount of legs, and a very gentle, smiling face :)
The Poem That Grows On You :)
I was in advance having a bit of fun
Because I knew one of the comments
would be: "It is the SUN"
Sorry Daniel, it was not right
Hope someone else will see the light!
Tim's Santa has the strangest beard
and hair grows out of his ears
He lacks his hat, he looks quite weird
Will be ridiculed by his peers
No Santa, Tim, but nice you volunteered.
Carol dragged a bushy smoking man
Away from his cigar
Thinking that my little niece
Would leave that poor man in peace
No Carol, he'll run off as fast as he can!
Daniel roars a second time
in Lion's costume, good try
But Daniel you don't conquer this lion ;)
So'll add more to this rhyme
Try a third time, don't be shy?
Heidi chose an animal
Raggedy, rugged dog
But his eyes are a little small
He looks more like a hedgehog
Oh! did I spoil the fun now? Not at all!
Carol thought she was smart
'Happy face?', we that wasn't hard ;)
Yes the thingy has a face
But oh where do we place
it? Is this animal, or person-art?
Lynn made it a Dora band-aid
With frayed edges and fringes and all
Well Lynn, I am afraid
No Dora, no band-aid, but hey
Kid draws bad, but is still so small ;)
