RAT-A-TAT-TAT

By Josie Whitehead

Rat a Tat-Tat

Wind - A Simile Poem .jpg

There’s a knock on our door

     That goes rat-a-tat-tat.

It isn’t a donkey

     And it isn’t the cat.    

​

​

It isn’t a horse

    Or a tiny wee mouse.

Oh rat-a-tat-tat –

       Who’s come to my house? 

​

​

                  

Rat-a-tat-tat –

     I can hear it again,

And it isn’t the wind

      And it isn’t the rain.

​

​

​

Rat-a-tat-tat –

     Look!  A shiny red van!

Oh I think that you’ve guessed

      It’s our friendly postman!
