MY DINOSAUR MAKES WAFFLES
My dinosaur loves breakfast.
She eats it everyday.
Waffles are her favorite,
that she makes a special way.
The batter is her trademark
with bits of spinach green.
They rise up high and fluffy,
and proper for a queen.
Crispy nooks and crannies,
complete this tasty treat.
A wonder to behold,
She flips them with her feet!

Click HERE to read this month's interview with Deborah Bruss and Matt Forrest Esenwine. They've challenged us to write a poem about something you would not expect a dinosaur (or another kind of animal) to do.
Leave your poem on our April 2018 padlet. While some contributions will be featured as daily ditties this month, all contributions will be included in a wrap-up celebration on Friday, April 27th, and one lucky participant will win a personalized copy of their fun new rhyming picture book from POW! Kids:
Just the title made me smile, but then, you grabbed the best smile with that ending, Kathy. Love the rhythm and rhyme, a fun "pet" story!
ReplyDeleteAdorable, Kathy! I'd love to see your dinosaur in action. :D
ReplyDeleteLove it, Kathy! I had to respond:
ReplyDeleteMy dinosaur makes pancakes;
to her, they're quite a treat.
But she's an Allosaurus,
so they're made of solid meat!
;)
Nice, Matt. Also, gross. I like Kathy's breakfast much better.
DeleteHey, she's a dinosaur - what do you expect?? ;)
DeleteCute exchange between Kathy and Matt! They sound like a couple of talented dinos.
ReplyDeletevery cute, Kathleen, but I wouldn't like spinach pancakes. Bet dinos do, though.
ReplyDeleteha! it's the spinach that makes them dino-ey!
ReplyDeleteGreat Kathleen! And I bet that dino makes a huge mess.
ReplyDeleteI love the ending, flippinging the cakes with her feet, wonderful!
