Homework term 3 week 6

Poetry homework for this week is by Edward Lear:

The owl and the Pussy-cat
went to sea
In a beautiful pea-green boat:
They took some honey, and plenty of money
Wrapped up in five-pound note.
The owl looked up to the stars above,
And sang to a small guitar,
''O lovely pussy , O pussy, my love,
What a beautiful pussy you are,
You are,
You are!
What a beautiful pussy you are!
