He snore as he lay,
rolled over-
Awake
"oh dear!" he exclaimed.
"what an itch!" he mourned.
"a scratch, a scratch - the world I'd give for a scratch!"
And he lay and pondered.
then gave a scratch and a scratch he received.
"oh dear." he sighed.
And he rolled over,
snoring as he lay.

Hmm... I don't know how to describe this poem, but I really like it. It's simple, and seems to have some humour to it, and yet conveys a message ("then gave a scratch and a scratch he received").


"A horse! A horse! My kingdom for a horse!"
I think that's a quote from something. Did you have this in mind?
