Raggy Mc Waggy

In NZ Heroes we wrote story inspired by the hairy maclary books. Here is mine:

Raggy mc Waggy

Raggy mc Waggy

Fur soft as can be

As small as a bunny

 and fast like a bee

Went out for a walk

On a summers hot day 

But then came along

 Trouble Mac Hay

Trouble Mac Hay

Steals apples all day

But when he gets bored

He plays in the hay

But when he disturbed

He stomps his hoofs loudly

He huffs and puffs

And then he says loudly

Raggy mc Waggy!

I’ve had enough

Stop running past quickly

And stealing my stuff

I'm getting real angry

So you better run

Cause I'm gonna come

So Run! Run! Run!

Raggy mc Waggy

Runs past all the houses

Till she gets home

To hide in her basket

The Magpies

The Magpies
By Denis Glover

1. ‘The bracken made their beds’
It means their beds were made out of bracken.

2. ‘Toms hand was strong to the plough

He is strongly pushing a plough.

3. ‘But all the beautiful crops soon went to the mortgage man instead’

They had to give their crops that they grew to the mortgage man to keep their farm.

4.’Old toms gone light in the head’

His brain isn't working very well and he's forgetting lots of things.

5.’The farms still their. Mortgage corporation couldn't give it away’

The mortgage corporation couldn't give it away because it doesn't have any value and no one wanted it.

My Haiku

In the Garden

Leafs blowing in the wind

Trees whispering quietly

Sun glowing down on me
