21. Birthday Wish
- By Ciana R. Lewis

Birthday Wishes For A Little Girl

in Birthday Poems

A cake with a lit candle,
Presents with ribbons and bows,
A bike with pink, glittery handles,
A little girl who grows and grows.

A cake with a lit candle,
Presents with ribbons and bows,
A bike with pink, glittery handles,
A little girl who grows and grows.

What will you wish for, my love,
On this, your very special day?
Send your wish to God above.
It will come true if you pray.

As you blow out the candle, my dear,
I'll make a wish for you too.
I'll whisper it so you won't hear,
That way I know it will come true.

My wish for you is like sunshine,
Warm, cheery, and full of delight,
My wish is the starlight, soothing and fine,
Which lights up the dark, dreary night.

May God follow you always,
May the path always be clear,
And may you have a happy birthday
This day and all through the years.

22. Are There Paw Prints In Heaven?
- By Missy Davis
- Published: January 2009
Poem Do Dogs Go To Heaven

in Animal Poems for Kids

I hear of a place that is made of gold,
a place where we shall never grow old,
but one answer I have not heard at all,
will there be paw prints from my little dog?

I hear of a place that is made of gold,
a place where we shall never grow old,
but one answer I have not heard at all,
will there be paw prints from my little dog?
He promised us joy right from the start.
I just wonder if she'll be a part.
So as I sit here and dream of the day,
I wonder if in heaven she will stay?
When you're walking down with the saints of old,
take a glimpse of that new road,
and if there you shall see,
maybe a paw print just for me.

Piano playing on its owny.
Time to go! Scream and shouty!

24. I Hate Peanut Butter
- By Inna Grigorenko
- Published: September 2021
A Distaste For Peanut Butter

in Funny Poems for Kids

These words I say without a stutter:
I hate the taste of peanut butter!
In Reese's chocolate it may stay
But keep the butter far away.

These words I say without a stutter:
I hate the taste of peanut butter!
In Reese's chocolate it may stay
But keep the butter far away.
It leaves a lump inside my belly,
It's even worse when paired with jelly!
I hate its texture, hate its smell;
If I go near it, I'm unwell.
My family tells me I'm dramatic
But against PB I stay emphatic.
If you're craving butter thick,
You might as well just eat the stick,
Or wear it as a winter coat
But keep it furthest from your throat!
Last time I ate it, things went south;
My tongue got glued inside my mouth!
If you include it in my lunch,
I'll very likely throw a punch.
I'd gladly eat a Brussels sprout
But keep the peanut butter out!

Short Poem Of Love From Young Daughter To Mother

in Poems by Kids

True treasure is not found on ships, in chests of silver and gold.
True treasure is not ruby rings or jewels from long ago.
You don't need a treasure map to find chests beneath the sea.
True treasure is simply the love and joy found in you and me!

Dreaming Of A Chocolate World

in Funny Poems for Kids

If my world were made of chocolate,
I know what I would do.
I'd make a chocolate mountain
And share it all with you.

If my world were made of chocolate,
I know what I would do.
I'd make a chocolate mountain
And share it all with you.

We'd eat our way up to the top
Until we'd eaten every drop.
Then chocolate clouds and chocolate rain
Would float us back to Earth again.

Chocolate fields and chocolate trees,
Chocolate rivers and chocolate seas,
Chocolate people and chocolate cars,
And houses made of chocolate bars.

Chocolate coats and chocolate hats,
Chocolate dogs and chocolate cats,
Chocolate castles. Oh, what a dream.
I would be known as the Chocolate Queen.

But there's one thing that would never do,
And I know for sure that this is true.
An end would be put to all our fun
If our world had a chocolate sun!

27. A View Of A Cat

I
sleep on
your bed, making
it my own, and
and when you are
away, I'm at home
all alone. I walk
around the food
bowl, sniffing out
what's there, and if
there's nothing good, I
I look at you and stare. I
curl up near the fire place
warming up my paws, I
pounce upon the scratch
post, sharpening my claws.
I see a mouse in front
staring straight at me, I
run and try to catch it
but it runs away from
thee. You see I am so
cute, so gorgeous with my
fur, when
you
stroke
my
head
I
close my
eyes
and purr.

29. Spring Is Here

The Coming Of Beautiful Spring

in Poems by Kids

Spring is here.
It's time to cheer
And observe God's tender grace

Spring is here.
It's time to cheer
And observe God's tender grace
With flowers blooming to and fro
And sun shining on my face.
Buds on trees and buzzing bees,
Flying in the air, searching for a flower, anywhere.
When it rains, the sun will shine
Even through the dark, gloomy sky.
Through the drip and the rain and pours,
A rainbow soaring high,
Stretching across the earth
Until the end where a pot of gold lies.
Birds coming back from their long winter rest.
Now there's chirping in my ear.
I tell you! I tell you! Spring is here!

30. To Catch A Poem
- By Santhini Govindan
- Published: March 2022
in Poems for Kids

I want to catch a poem,
But I’m not sure how.
I wish I knew when and where,
I could catch a poem right now.

I want to catch a poem,
But I’m not sure how.
I wish I knew when and where,
I could catch a poem right now.

Can I catch a poem in the sand on a beach?
Or hiding in fields of long, green grass?
Can I catch a poem among the waves in the sea?
I’m not sure where I can catch a poem, alas!

Will I be able to catch a poem with a loop of rope?
Can I use the rope to lasso, and bind the poem up tight?
Will I be able to catch a poem with a butterfly net?
Will the net stop the poem from slipping out of sight?

Can I catch a poem when I’m playing outdoors?
Or can I catch a poem from right under my bed?
Oh gosh! As I thought about where I could catch a poem;
I actually caught one – it was right inside my head!!

“To Catch a Poem” was first published in March 2022 by Ukiyoto Publishing in the book titled To Catch a Poem by Santhini Govindan. The book can be bought on Amazon or from the Ukiyoto bookstore.

An elephant came for a sleepover
And jumped into my bed

An elephant came for a sleepover

My bed is broken too
And as for Mr. Elephant?
He’s gone back to the zoo

Funny Poem About Eating A Lot

in Funny Poems for Kids

My brother can eat.
Hide your fruits,

My brother can eat.
Hide your fruits,
Hide your snacks,
Hide all your treats.

It doesn't matter what it is.
Y'all don't understand.

Call him munchie man.

Rice and chicken,
Mac and cheese.
He's always in the kitchen
Saying, "More, please."

Just the other day,
He ate all Daddy's steak.
Just the other day,
He had three plates.

I guarantee if you see him, he will ask,
"What are we going to eat?"
I love my brother lots,
But the boy sure can eat.

The difference between them

You may get a nip!
Gentle Great Dane
Has a powerful bite,
But never would nip you.
She's much too polite.
Great Dane finds the carpet
A fine place to nap.
Chihuahua loves curling
Right up in your lap.
Their owners would have
Some cause for dismay
If each dog behaved
In the opposite way!

35. Mrs. Blossom
- By Christopher J. Radford
- Published: June 2017
Poem About Children's Misconception Of An Adult

in Poems for Kids

Mrs. Blossom was a witch,
we're pretty sure of that,
though she didn't have a broomstick,
wear a cloak, or pointed hat.

Mrs. Blossom was a witch,
we're pretty sure of that,
though she didn't have a broomstick,
wear a cloak, or pointed hat.

She brewed some strange concoctions
in her kitchen on her stove.
You could smell the deep aroma
from her house in Penny Grove.

Strange plants grew in her garden.
What they were, we never knew,
but they seemed to cure most anything,
from a little scratch to the flu.

We often used to call there,
under protest, I might say,
to deliver her some groceries.
Then we'd try to run away!

She'd thank us for our trouble
and would offer us some tea,
but she scared us when she spoke
from where her teeth once used to be!

We never saw a book of spells,
and she didn't have a cat,
but Mrs. Blossom was a witch.
We're pretty sure of that!
