Jelly Baby

 

Shaped poems are great fun and many different shapes can be used. I remember JellyBabies when I was a child and loved them.  Sweet and colourful creations.



Jelly Baby

I`m a little 
chewy jelly baby 
along with all my 
colourful friends 
we come from a 
yellow packet
just for you
we`re sugary sweet
a little treat to taste in a secret 
hide away. What`s your favourite
Is it red or green, which one do you 
   eat         first, or yellow one       last   
Do you nibble at my 
feet slowly or devour
my head in one?  Taste
all my  fruity  flavours 
then when      all`s gone
remember        enjoyment
will only be         a shop away
