Bath time - A poem by Stegzy Gnomepants

Turn the tap on


Let the water out


Put the plug in


It's too hot so shout




Wait for the tub


To fill to half


Then add the cold


It's time for your bath




Mix in the bubbles


Ready the flannel


But don't lean to hard


On the baths side panel




In with the toe


Is it too hot?


Did you take off your sock?


No! I thought not




Strip to your skin


Step into the bath


Clean behind your ears


Splish splash and laugh




And when it's gone cold


And you're wrinkled like a prune


Its time to get out


Until your next bath in June




Ah thank you
