I always like to read a book
And if you waved in my face I wouldn’t look
But this weird thing was much, much more,
When I read Harry Potter 1,2,3 and 4.

There’s the game of quidditch played on broom
And harry on his “Fire Bolt” you should see him zoom
There’s also Draco Malfoy, Harry’s enemy
Who’s jealous of his talents, I think, you ought to see.
And there’s the school’s four houses yes,
There’s Ravenclaw, Huffelpuff, they’re the second best
There’s Slytherin (last) but the one I most adore,
Is the house that Harry’s in, it must be Gyffindor

Then Ron and Hermoine as his best friends will do,
Help to solve the mysteries that lie at hogwarts too
So now my friends this poem is all done
And thanks to Joanne Rowling these books are really fun!!!
