A Day In The Life Of Me

I get out of bed
And tuck up my ted
I go get some food
I’m in a good mood

I put on a shirt
I ignore my skirt
Instead I wear shorts
They’re the colour of quarts

Brush my hair
Put on a pair
Of blue and green shoes
They come in twos

Pack my bag
Mum starts to nag
I must scurry
We’re in a hurry

I get to class
I must be fast
To get ready…
But where’s my teddy

The bell goes
I’m on my toes
I run to Fred
He has my ted!
