My Favourite Poem

I like poems that make me laugh
An aching neck of an old giraffe
An orangutan who chased his tail
An orange zebra all set to sail

I also like the ones about ghosts
The silly one where they eat their hosts
The gruesome one about a witch
Who threw little children in a ditch

Then there are poems that inspire me
Give me hope amidst a tragedy
Throw sunshine on a dark day
When nothing seems to go my way

What can I say about poems that rhyme?
I love to read them all the time
The tone and meter is well set
Once you read them, you can’t forget

All these poems I love a lot
When there’s nothing, they’re all I’ve got
I read them all, I love them too
But my favourite poem is You
