Aaron’s Poem
Here comes the man with a crown head.
And the ducks are very quiet.
As he walk the beads sound shaky and scratchy
and he slithers like a snake.
As his heads moves, cracks and clicks
Like the sound of a zip.
With ducks' beaks hanging down to his face
and the heavy hat making his head scratchy
And the necks of the birds moving like a snake
and the beak that wobbles sounds like a shaker
He finds it hard to listen and talk
An his nose cannot smell
The eyes are wide open
And the nose is fat
And the mouth looks like an open zip
And the heavy crown sat on his head
And the beads hanging
Nowhere to go.
Aaron, aged 8
