Before I die, I have a list of things I want to do, I hope you will join in with me and make a list too!
To see the grazing monkeys in Ethiopia, And visit the Amazon Rainforest would be utopia, To swim with sharks in a protective cage, And write a book about my life once I have aged, To soar through the sky in my own hanglider, And climb the tallest mountain, going higher and higher, To produce a film about the beautiful natural world, And learn how to do a backward somersault, To see the turtles hatching on Alagadi Beach, And watch them swimming out sea would be such a treat, Id love to watch a Peregrine hunt and catch its flying prey, And see some little squirrels sleeping in their drey, To swim with white Beluga Whales in the Hudson Bay, And maybe i could, a guitar leaen how to play, To try and live a week in the forest on my own, Maybe the Forest Of Dean, or maybe Yellowstone, I would love to go and see the penguins in the south, And see a giant Blue Whale open its giant mouth, It would be great to go backpacking in Australia, And see the little Devil in Tasmania, To see England play a game in great Wembley, And watch Arsenal Football Club win the Premier League, And some thing that can really happen this very year, To see Great Britain take home gold would make me jump and cheer, Last, Id like to find a new species and name it Shmorange, Just so there is a word that rhymes with orange!
Those are the things I wish to do before I go and die, I cannot wait to read your brilliant poems in reply!
