Sharpen Up Mr Squiggle
After 60 years of drawing
his nose was all but blunt
So our famous Mr Squiggle
went on a sharpener hunt
He took his rocket to the moon
with Blackboard and Miss Jane
They found a big red sharpener
and his pencils sharp again
Sharpen Up Mr Squiggle

So our famous Mr Squiggle

They found a big red sharpener
and his pencils sharp again
Australian Children’s Poetry 
A simple, effective and fun poem which I’m sure younger readers will enjoy.
Thanks for the memories Jeanie! I wonder if there will be a time where we need to explain to young children what a pencil was. Will we still use them in future decades?
Your poem is short and to the point, Jeanie!
It prompted me to sharpen-up and buy pencils; haven’t used them since I was a kid. Can’t tell if their “Upside Down, Upside Down,” or not. Yes I know, another bad joke from Steam Shovel.
Okay Blackboard, i’ll “HURRY UP” and write some poems.
Lol
Love it!
