Book Free DemoComplete the poem with the help of the options:
lived in a little white house,
With a little black kitten and a little grey mouse,
And a little yellow dog and a little red ,
And a realio, trulio, little pet dragon.
With a little black kitten and a little grey mouse,
And a little yellow dog and a little red ,
And a realio, trulio, little pet dragon.
Now the name of the little black kitten was Ink,
And the little grey mouse, she called him Blink,
And the little yellow dog was sharp as Mustard,
But the dragon was a coward, and she called him .
Custard the dragon had big sharp teeth,
And spikes on top of him and scales underneath,
Mouth like a fireplace, for a nose,
And realio, trulio daggers on his toes.
And spikes on top of him and scales underneath,
Mouth like a fireplace, for a nose,
And realio, trulio daggers on his toes.
Belinda was as brave as a barrel full of bears,
And Ink and Blink chased lions down the stairs,
Mustard was as brave as a tiger in a rage,
But Custard cried for a nice safe .
Belinda tickled him, she tickled him unmerciful,
Ink, Blink and Mustard, they rudely called him ,
They all sat laughing in the little red wagon
At the realio, trulio, cowardly dragon.
Ink, Blink and Mustard, they rudely called him ,
They all sat laughing in the little red wagon
At the realio, trulio, cowardly dragon.
Belinda till she shook the house,
And Blink said Weeck! which is giggling for a mouse,
Ink and Mustard rudely asked his age,
When Custard cried for a nice safe cage.
Suddenly, suddenly they heard a nasty sound,
And Mustard growled, and they all looked around.
Meowch! cried Ink, and ooh! cried Belinda,
For there was a , climbing in the winda.
And Mustard growled, and they all looked around.
Meowch! cried Ink, and ooh! cried Belinda,
For there was a , climbing in the winda.
Pistol in his left hand, in his right,
And he held in his teeth a bright,
His beard was black, one leg was wood;
It was clear that the pirate meant no good.
Belinda paled, and she cried Help! Help!
But Mustard fled with a terrified yelp,
Ink trickled down to the bottom of the household,
And little mouse Blink strategically mouseholed.
But Mustard fled with a terrified yelp,
Ink trickled down to the bottom of the household,
And little mouse Blink strategically mouseholed.
But up jumped Custard, snorting like an ,
Clashed his tail like irons in a dungeon,
With a clatter and a clank and a jangling squirm,
He went at the pirate like a robin at a worm.
The pirate gaped at Belinda’s dragon,
And gulped some grog from his pocket ,
He fired two bullets, but they didn’t hit,
And Custard him, every bit.
Belinda embraced him, Mustard licked him,
No one for his pirate victim.
Ink and Blink in glee did gyrate
Around the dragon that ate the pirate.
No one for his pirate victim.
Ink and Blink in glee did gyrate
Around the dragon that ate the pirate.
But presently up spoke little dog Mustard,
I’d have been twice as if I hadn’t been flustered.
And up spoke Ink and up spoke Blink,
We’d have been three times as brave, we think,
And Custard said, I agree
That everybody is braver than me.
Belinda still lives in her little white house,
With her little kitten and her little mouse,
And her little yellow dog and her little red wagon,
And her realio, little pet dragon.
With her little kitten and her little mouse,
And her little yellow dog and her little red wagon,
And her realio, little pet dragon.
Belinda is as brave as a full of bears,
And Ink and Blink chase lions down the stairs,
Mustard is as brave as a tiger in a rage,
But Custard keeps crying for a nice safe cage.
And Ink and Blink chase lions down the stairs,
Mustard is as brave as a tiger in a rage,
But Custard keeps crying for a nice safe cage.
