QUICK! THERE IS A POEM

by Tony Walsh

Shhh! There is a poem in a whispered secret
Quick! There is a poem in a shaft of light
Look! There is a poem in a screwed up leaflet
There! There is a poem in a tangled kite

Aww! There is a poem in a tom cat’s whiskers
See! There is a poem in a statue’s eye
Hey! There is a poem in a triplet’s sisters
Woah! There is a poem in a midnight sky

Brrr! There is a poem in a frozen fountain
Yum! There is a poem in a slice of cake
Phew! There is a poem in a sun-kissed mountain
Yikes! There is a poem in a curled up snake

Great! There is a poem in a million faces
Yes! There is a poem if you look and see
Cool! There is a poem in a billion places
Wow! There is a poem and it’s inside ME!
