Post

I see the postman!

He's coming this way!

I wonder what letters he has,

for me today!

The postman comes near,

and gives me a smile.

I smile back at him,

and he hands me a file.

I look at him confused.

I had nothing to say.

He told me to give it to my father,

without further delay.

Were there no letters?

No parcels for me?

While I stood thinking,

a red ant bit me.

I shouted in pain,

and fell to the ground.

The postman helped me up,

and from his pocket fell a pound.

He turned to leave,

but suddenly he stopped.

He noticed that the pound,

which was in his pocket had dropped.

He bent to pick it up,

and from his bag, a letter fell out.

The letter was for me!

I wanted to shout!

I picked it up and skipped away happily,

filled with glee.

Inside, a lucky catch,

a trip to France for free!
