### **MORE POETRY!!!**

Hunting for Furballs with my sister.
It is really fun.
I start to cry when we are done.
Was it blue? I ask.
No, it was pink she said.

O joy! O Joy! O joy!
A furball! Ahoaee!
When will one come out?
I don't know, i am about to shout!

- from athi11

it was a rainy day
oh sorrow please go away
the sun came out
and a joy ful shout
could be heard a mile away

- from Wolfie Gal

I waddle round and round all day,
I see some games that I can play!
Astro Barrier, Bean Counter, Slay Riding,
Look for me, i'll be hiding!
At my igloo cozy and warm,
I stay completely out of harm!
Come with me, to the coffee shop!
Where you can see the waitors hop with a mop,
So as you can see,
Club Penguin is the place I will be!

- from Keewee

The blades of grass are shiny and white,
The dew that is on them comes from the night,
I smile and glee at the sound and sight,
of the birds in the morning and the crickets, in
fright.

When the dawn strikes at a quarter to one,
i get up and ready to have some fun,
i dive and play all day long, all day
I think to myself, what a wonderful world!

- from xoGinaox and lilgirl101

I am a lone penguin, that is me,
I sit on the snow and watch the sea.
The colors of the sea light blue,
Along with other shades so true.
Aside the dock are people who hula dance,
Only a grass skirt in the snow? What a chance!
A boat is tied to the pier,
Many people flock to there,
Slowly, I step into the aqua,
The freezing cold temp¹rature would shock ya,
It is cold on this day in the town of CP,
Watching the ice burgs on the sea.

- from Quadly

Snow is bright,
Snow is white,
Snow If fun,
in the sun,
Till summer comes
It melts away

- from Penguin Pinkly

Penguins are small
Penguins are tall
I love them all.

Penguins have beaks
Penguins have cheeks
But they don't have cleats.

- from Halo2boy
