Primary 6 Poets

P6 have been writing poems in the style of poet Charles Causley’s ‘As I went down Zig Zag’.  Here are some examples of our favourite stanzas:

As I went down Zig Zag

The clock striking two,

I saw a man bouncing

Like a purple kangaroo.

As i went down Zig Zag

The clock striking eight,

I saw a bike which ate 

A sparkly chocolate cake.

By Zoe Evans

As I went down Zig Zag

The clock striking one

I saw a man dancing

When the party was done.

As I went down zig zag

The clock striking three

I saw an old lady drinking

Tea in the sea. 

By Connor Ramsay

As I went down Zig Zag

The clock striking eight,

I saw a boy going

For a long skate.

As I went down Zig Zag

The clock striking nine,

I saw a girl singing

A nursery rhyme.

By Ellie Hamilton
