There’s a sheep in the tree in our garden,
It’s covered with twigs and bark.
There’s a sheep in the tree in our garden,
And it thinks it’s a bit of a lark.
…
There’s a sheep in the hedge in our garden,
It’s covered with thorns and prickles.
There’s a sheep in the hedge in our garden,
And it thinks it’s a bit of a tickle.
…
There’s a sheep in the shed in our garden,
It’s covered with spiders’ webs and dust.
There’s a sheep in the shed in our garden,
And it thinks it hasn’t been sussed.
…
There’s a sheep in the tub in our bathroom,
It’s covered in bubbles and foam.
There’s a sheep in the tub in our bathroom,
And it’s making itself at home!

Thanks, Anita. I wrote that one after a very amusing session with Josh Seigal – he brings out the worst in me!

Put out a call here in blogworld…you never know. I like doing children’s poetry and used to illustrate my own to an extent but for publication I would have someone else do them…I hope you find someone, it gives them a whole other life.
