The Dirigible Balloon
Poetry for Children

Bored

I’ve drawn on the whiteboard
I’ve read a whole book
I’ve built with my Lego
I’ve dressed up as Hook
I’ve sung a few songs
I’ve played ball and cup
I’ve made myself lunch
(I’ve even washed up.)
I’ve fed both the goldfish,
I’ve cuddled the cat…

…so can I use the iPad?
Because I haven’t done that.
