We have been doing even more Poetry! In room 28 we do a poem each week! Here is a song Mr Short told us about called THE BLACK SUPERMAN- MUHAMMAD ALI (The song is also at the bottom from YOUTUBE)

This here's the story of Cassius Clay Who changed his name to Muhammad Ali He knows how to talk and he knows how to fight And all the contenders were beat out of sight

Sing, Muhammad, Muhammad Ali He floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee Mohammed, the black superman Who calls to the other guy I'm Ali catch me if you can

Now all you fight fans, you've got to agree There ain't no flies on Muhammad Ali He fills the arena wherever he goes And everyone gets what they paid for

Muhammad, was known to have said You watch me shuffle and I'll jab off your head He moves like the black superman And calls to the other guy I'm Ali catch me if you can

He says I'm the greatest the worlds ever seen The heavyweight champion who came back again My face is so pretty you don't see a scar Which proves I'm the king of the ring by far

Sing, Muhammad, Muhammad Ali He floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee Mohammed, the black superman Who calls to the other guy I'm Ali catch me if you can

Sing, Muhammad, Muhammad Ali He floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee Muhammad, the black superman Who calls to the other guy I'm Ali catch me if you can

In this one we had to fill in some of the gaps, so the poetry rhymed.
__**DOWN THE HALLWAY**__ As I walk down I get a fright Searching helplessly for a light

Got to go! Will something get me? Or will I pee Hairy Monsters coming very fast Racing to get me as I creep past Furry Hand Massive Claws Trying to catch me in their jaws Made it to the toilet Now I can go The Monster will get me  This I know When I get out, I'm really scared SO instead of walking I will run in fear
