Just for fun...a poem I wrote for my English class last year...hope you enjoy it!
Strange Bedfellows
by P. Manley, Ziggy’s Mom
January, 2011
Ziggy is a beardie
Or a dragon some will say
But to the common folk
He’s just a lizard today.
They bob their heads
And they shed their skin
When you see them wave
Most people will grin.
They won’t go for a walk
Or even take a ride
But they do enjoy
A good game of hide.
They like bright light
And a warm place to sun
A little spray of water
Or a bath is such fun.
They love to eat crickets
And live for worms
But some prefer baby food
Or even green ferns.
It’s funny sometimes
Love we have found
Doesn’t even have to
Come with a sound.
But most of the time
It comes as a surprise.
Ziggy is 3 years old and a special part of my life!
