English Poem For Class 5 With Poet Name – Poem 1

This Morning Is Our History Test

This morning is our history test. I’ve pinned my notes inside my vest. Inside my coat, I wrote my notes, including dates and famous quotes.

I’ve written more upon my hand that only I can understand, and in my socks and sleeves, I stowed my scribbled notes in secret code.

I’ve written down so many names of winners of the Olympic games, of buildings, people’s place too, from Tennessee to Timbuktu.

I even copied down a piece on ancient Rome and ancient Greece, plus everything from Shakespeare’s plays to who invented mayonnaise.

I came to school so well prepared. I wasn’t nervous, wasn’t scared. But here it is, the history test. I look inside my coat and vest

to get the dates and famous quotes and find I cannot read my notes. So much for Shakespeare, Greece, and Rome. I left my glasses back at home.

Homework Stew

I cooked my math book in a broth and stirred it to a steaming froth. I threw in papers—pencils, too— to make a pot of homework stew. Homework Stew by Kenn Nesbitt

I turned the flame up nice and hot and tossed my binder in the pot. I sprinkled in my book report with colored markers by the quart.

Despite its putrid, noxious gas, I proudly took my stew to class. And though the smell was so grotesque, I set it on my teacher’s desk.

My teacher said, “You’re quite a chef. But, still, you’re going to get an F. I didn’t ask for ‘homework stew,’ I said, ‘Tomorrow, homework’s due.’”

English Poem For Class 5 With Moral – Poem 3

I Have to Write a Poem

I have to write a poem but I really don’t know how. So maybe I’ll just make a rhyme with something dumb, like “cow.”

Okay, I’ll write about a cow, but that’s so commonplace. I think I’ll have to make her be… a cow from outer space!

My cow will need a helmet and a space suit and a ship. Of course, she’ll keep a blaster in the holster on her hip.

She’ll hurtle through the galaxy on meteoric flights to battle monkey aliens in huge karate fights.

She’ll duel with laser sabers while avoiding lava spray to vanquish evil emperors and always save the day.

I hope the teacher likes my tale, “Amazing Astro Cow.” Yes, that’s the poem I will write as soon as I learn how.

English Poem For Class 5 Students – Poem 4

Ice-Cream Man

When summer’s in the city, And brick’s a blaze of heat, The Ice-cream Man with his little cart

Goes trundling down the street. Beneath his round umbrella, Oh, what a joyful sight,

To see him fill the cones with mounds Of cooling brown and white: Vanilla, chocolate, strawberry,

Or chilly things to drink From bottles full of frosty fizz, Green, orange, white, or pink.

His cart might be a flower bed, Of roses and sweet peas, The way the children cluster round As thick as honeybees.

Short English Poem For Class 5

The Lazy Frog

Fred is a very lazy frog Who lolls all day upon a log. He always manages to shirk

Doing a single stroke of work. His poor old mother calls in vain “Come in and help!” he does not bother

To move two inches, much preferring To be extremely hard of hearing. He lies there in a silent heap,

And stays conveniently asleep. f a lady frog hops past You’d think he would get up at last

To bow, and help her on her way? But no, I am ashamed to say That when a lady frog comes by He does not open up one eye!

Nobody’s Friend

She had some sweets that she wouldn’t share, She had a book that she wouldn’t lend, She wouldn’t let anyone play with her doll,

She’s nobody’s friend! He had some toffee, and ate every bit, He had a tricycle he wouldn’t lend,

He never let anyone play with his train, He’s nobody’s friend! But I’ll share all of my sweets with you,

My ball and my books and my games I will lend, Here’s half my apple and half my cake – I’m your friend!
