POETRY
My mother and I
go shopping to buy
the food that we eat
and things that we need
We put tins in the trolley
a bottle and a box
my sister wants a lolly
and I need new socks
Mum says that vitamins
are good for my health
but I am tempted
by the very last shelf
Wrapped in bright coloured paper
are chocolates and sweets
I want to eat all
My, what a feast!
A.V.
