The SPY

On the third month of the year
There came a man who's not familiar
A trainee teacher passing by
When he's really a top secret spy

We were all too noisy one fine day
When he blew his top and ask Fay:
Do you know what's a market?
It is one that we are having here today!

He punish us with narrative poetry
saying, "It's good for you, you know."
I guess he's right about that
Since he's so smart and bold

Helping us before we started to write
Graphic organiser and pairwork sounds alright
In the end it's all worthwhile
To be trained by a top spy who doesn't smile.

A Narrative Poem

Poor Cinderella

Poor Cinderella, whose stepmom was mean,
could never see films rated PG-13.
She hadn't a cell phone and no DVD,
no notebook computer or pocket TV.
She wasn't allowed to play video games.
The tags on her clothes had unfashionable names.
Her shoes were not trendy enough to be cool.
No limousine chauffeur would drive her to school.
Her house had no drawing room; only a den.
Her bedtime, poor darling, was quarter past ten!

Well one day Prince Charming declared that a ball
would be held in his honor and maidens from all
over the kingdom were welcome to come
and party to techno and jungle house drum.

But Poor Cinderella, with nothing to wear,
collapsed in her stepmother's La-Z-Boy chair.
She let out a sigh, with a lump in her throat,
then sniffled and picked up the TV remote.
She surfed channel zero to channel one-ten
then went back to zero and started again.
She watched music videos, sitcoms and sports,
commercials and talkshows and weather reports.

But no fairy godmother came to her side
to offer a dress or a carriage to ride.
So Poor Cinderella's been sitting there since,
while one of her stepsisters married the Prince.
She sits there and sadly complains to the screen,
if only her stepmother wasn't so mean.
