Ds has just presented some homework from the bottom of his bag... he has to write a paragraph about the author of a poem he chose and read the poem to his class. 1st thing on Monday. He found the poem in a book at the school library, photocopied it and brought it home. Only there's no author name! It may well be author unknown but seeing as he has to write about the author, I thought I'd try you lot first and see if anyone has heard of it before!
The Crowd Scene
They say I can't act,
They say I can't dance.
They say I can't sing
But teacher won't give me a chance.
So I'm in the crowd scene again
I asked to be a shepherd,
I begged to be a king.
I said that I'd play any part,
Any person, any thing!
But I'm in the crowd scene again.
It goes on for a few more verses. Google isn't showing up anything. I did think about just coming up with a different poem/author but apparently the poem was chosen for some reason ds can't explain and had to be ok'd by the teacher!
