Here are a few of my own poems i hope you enjoy them.
A STRANGE NEW WORLD
by Peter Hegney
I made a funny sound today
I don?t know how or why.
But when I did a giant person held me to the sky.
He too was making funny sound I couldn?t understand,
but I made a kind of burping noise when he hit me with his hand.
He showed me brown and gooey stuff and tried to make me eat.
It looked like stuff the Bow Wow made and smelt like sweaty feet.
He said yumm! Yumm! And dinn dinn?s, and he tried to make me laugh.
But I wont fall for that old trick, oh! No I?m not that daft.
I know I?m really very small, but I?m learning very quick.
The giants come a running, when I cry or when I?m sick.
They put a thing called Lolly in my mouth and ;Wow! its great.
And they pick me up and cuddle me till late.
There is a time I like the most, When they put away my things.
The mummy giant lays me down and to me softly sings.
She lays beside me where its soft, and I feel safe and warm.
Thank you God for giving me a loving happy home.
I AM A SCARE CROWBy Peter Hegney
I am a scare crow Woo! Waa!
Enter my field if you dare.
I wear a dusty cow boy hat
to keep in my golden hair.
I guard with pride my field of corn
in my hat and trousers worn.
Standing bold from dusk till dawn
crows and rooks beware.
Hey! you flying rat
get of my crops, bring back my hat.
I am scary Waa! Woo!
Ill do terrible things to you.
The battle?s won but not the war
they?ll come again they?ve been before
but ill be here firm and steady
scruffy yes but always ready.
NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS. BY PETER HEGNEY
Did I really wear them shoes man
did I really wear that hat.
Did I really do that chicken dance
upon the kitchen mat.
Did I really wear that tank top
with the red and yellow stars.
Did I really travel to the shops
inside those bubble cars.
Did I really have high shoes like that
and trousers quite so wide.
Did you really make me wear these things
and make me go outside.
Why were you so horrible,
to me please tell me why.
Did I really wear my dads old kipper tie.
Did you really make me sit
and watch that program DR Who,
And the Clangers and marine boy
and captain pugwash too.
Did you never think that watching these
would warp and twist my mind,
and make my school work fall by miles behind.
Did I really do the hand jive,
at my youth club Christmas dance.
When it came to pulling birds,man
I just never stood a chance.
In my tartan scarf and tartan jeans
And tartan coat and hat.
The girls would run for miles.
At the sight of such a prat.
Did I really bang my head,
to heavy rock when I was drunk.
And fight with guys with mopeds.
And bounce around to punk.
My children watch the men in black,
and tellie tubbies too.
How could I have ever watched
Such crap, its just not true.
The kids they have no fashion sense
and there music has no tune.
They might as well be singing on the moon.(That reminds of a song?)
NO I never stayed out late.
I never drank no alcohol.
I never played loud music.
And I never danced at all.
I never wore loud clothing
and I never wore blue flares.
And I certainly never ever had pink and purple hair.
Never never never did I do these things you say.
Well maybe just a little .but that?s just not allowed today.
THE BLUE FLASH By Peter Hegney
Clickety clack,
Clickety clack.
Over the fields,
Along this track.
Iv got to be There,
By five past four
My whistle blows,
My engine roars.
Faster and faster,
You need Java to see this applet.
I cannot be late.
Wire ahead
To close the gates
People are waiting,
Waiting for me
To carry them on,
To the hills and the sea.
Far in the distance,
To family and friends.
On important dates,
Till who knows when.
I come to a halt
And open my doors
And wait till my driver shouts

ALL ABOARD
TODAYS THE DAY by Peter Hegney
Today?s the day, it could be me
I feel as lucky as can be.
Ive got my ticket in my hand
Tomorrow I can book the band.
The champagne and the caviar
A chauffeur and a big fat car
Buy a yacht and sail afar.
Cos? today?s the day I win the lottery.
Today?s the day, not long now
Seconds away till my final bow
A life of bliss and luxury calls
Now lets bring on those lucky balls
My favorite film star.. finger's ready
My hands shaking but his are steady.
The buttons pressed here they come.
Down the tube one by one.
Today?s the day I win the lottery.
Today?s the day the first balls out
Its number 9...I give a shout.
Number 11, 15 too 21, 36 and 42.
Here?s the bonus number 7
My lucky number I?m in heaven
I check my ticket its feeling hot.
Oh! My god I have the lot.
Hurrah!Fantastic!ive got them all.
Right the way down to the very last ball.
Today?s the day I win the lottery.
My family?s arrived; there?s more than a few
To watch me dial the Camelot HQ.
One moment Sir, I'll run a check,
I'll buy a Ferrari what the heck.
Congratulations you have won.
A share of £15 million.
But there are fifteen million claims
A record number have the same.
You're pay out from the Lottery...
Is a staggering £1.50p?
