Volcanoes

Volcano, Volcano, oozes out lava fast and slow
The fire glows inside
Ready to zoom out and crawl
It crawls down the side of the volcano
You can smell it you can feel it, in your hair,
Eyes, nose and ears
You can taste it in your mouth all gooey and ooey
Then you swallow it! OOOOOPPPPPSSSS!!
There it goes, speeding down your throat
It goes into your stomach, intestines, legs and toes
Where it stops? Nobody knows!
Hey Mum! Watch me erupt!
Then spend your life spitting out lava
Whenever you want.
