Good at reading, great at art
Knows four poems off by heart
Helpful, kind and super smart
My mate, Mark
Always singing (mostly pop)
Chews his nails (he just can’t stop)
Does fantastic bellyflops
My mate, Mark
Great at football (he’s our goalie)
Favourite food? It’s ravioli!
Chews it veeeery, veeeery slowly…
My mate, Mark
Shares his chocolate, plays guitar
Says he’ll be a movie star
My best friend at school by far
My mate, Mark
