Jumping Jack Flash by Alex Craggs

 









 
 

Jumping Jack Flash when jumping
Started rocking
And rolling
And bumping
'til a...

Thumping black crash when rolling
Sent him ducking
And diving
And flying
'til a... 

Solid brick wall just standing
Banged his head
When landing.

So now...

Slumping Jack Flash forgot
His jumping
And bumping  
What rot!
But a...

Shining full moon that shimmered
Had him moving
With hope
That glimmered
Now he’s...

Dancing Jack Flash on a lily
In a tutu
And tights
How silly!
