COME, READ ME A POEM
By Josie Whitehead
Come, read me a poem that will carry me far
On the wings of imaginary flight;
That will transport my mind to a fanciful world,
On the soft gentle breeze of the night.
Come read me a poem of magical lands,
Where the fairies cavort in the sun,
Where dragons and unicorns – creatures unreal –
Come to life, frisk around and have fun.
Come read me a poem to lull me to sleep
With a voice that’s melodic and sweet.
On the wings of your poem I’ll drift far away
Now that my day is complete.

Some new words for you in this poem?
Imaginative flight: Taking your mind to a magical place immediately, as if you've flown there by plane perhaps? No, you can just think of this place - or dream about it.
Cavort: To prance or caper about - as you probably do at home.
That's what the little fairies like doing too. Didn't you know?
Fanciful world: An imaginative, unreal world - such as you might see in a film about fairyland. Yes, you would see fairies, dragons. uniforms and many more things there - the sort of things you'd see in fairy tales in books. Think of some you'd like to see.
A voice that's 'melodic and sweet': - Oh listen to me reading the poem. You don't want to listen to a poem read by someone who has a loud, angry, shouting voice do you? You'd never get to sleep.
