Senses Poems
for Children -
KS1 and KS2
By Josie Whitehead
This poem, with its speaking parts,
makes for an excellent PERFORMANCE POEM
TALKING TASTE
By Josie Whitehead
Two crocodiles sat at a table and talked
Of the things which they most liked to eat.
One said: 'I especially like fat little boys
And, cooked slowly, they can be quite sweet.'
The other one said: 'Have you ever tried girls?
You can fry them, or just gently roast,
But, when in great haste, you get the best taste
If you slice them and eat them on toast.'
Copyright on all my poems
When I've made skype visits to children's classrooms, most often they have learned a poem off by heart and want to perform it well for my visit. This poem is most popular. Perhaps the idea of children being eaten appeals to their humour, but look at the links above: In my poem "A Monstrous Thing to Happen" poor Granny and Granddad get eaten and he rejects the children. Oh dear!
