See the video below, with your parents' permission, for some inspiration!
Yes! I had a boy!
ReplyDeleteI won't ever become a toy!
But tell me, what is this pain?
Am I going to give birth again?
Oh, great,I'm going to die!
At least I get to finish my pie!
Actually,it's not as bad as I thought!
And I never got caught!
You may think, what could I get caught for?
But if I tell you, won't that create more?
Of a problem for me?
Or will everybody just disagree?
It doesn't matter, I don't care!
As long as nobody messes up my hair!
And I really love to dance!
So this will be my last chance!
Help me ,help me! I'm almost dead!
I want to save my royal head!
I know that I'm not able to!
And now I need to go to the loo!
That poem was about Jane Seymour, King Henry VIII third wife, who died after giving Henry the son he always wanted!
Anne Boleyn had a had a think
ReplyDeleteIf she should marr Henry and leave the Catholic Church
For Henry Church of England
She did though , she married Henry
She had a kid little old Elizabeth ,her born catholic
Then Elizabeth at the age of three
Her mum decided to go on a date with other men
Unluckily for her Henry found out
She put up a good push to try and get herself out of it
But she failed and Henry didn't
Her was cut off and she was defiantly dead!
Anne Boleyn ,
Catharine or Aragon was first.
ReplyDeleteShe failed to give him a son.
He needed a divorce.
So a new church
And they got appart.
jane Seymour was 3rd she went and gave a son.
ReplyDeletewho was amazingly super at being fun.
one day he went and ran to fran.
who was banned from eating a can of tomato soup
My My! Who's this? It' s Catherine Parr,
ReplyDeleteShe's not deposed so far!
With luscious eyes of ruby red,
And her marvellous plans ahead.
Jane Seymour came third,
ReplyDeleteShe gave Henry a son I heard.
Henry loves Jane dearly,
She is a real love bird.
But when her son was born,
People came to mourn.
Jane Seymour was announced dead,
And Henry VIII was torn.
We have a new queen,
ReplyDeletePrettier than thee.
She ruled for three years,
She shed billions of tears!
And even though she was very ambitious
Her head went of with a chop!
Anne Boleyn
ReplyDeleteHenry divorced Catherine of Arragon,
As she did not give him a royal heir and son.
He decided to marry his beloved Anne Boleyn,
And made her his second queen.
She gave birth to a royal baby girl,
Much to the utter horror of Henry.
When Henry had become very bored,
He decided to chop Anne’s head with a sword!
The people of England jeered and cheered,
When they heard the news that she’d disappeared.
My Favourite wife
ReplyDeleteAmong all my six wives,
Who I had given devastated lives.
My most beloved third wife was Jane,
She had a great reign,
Then she got into a real pain,
By giving me a baby boy all my love she did gain.
Alas her poor health made her die,
So I sorrowfully bid her goodbye
She was the only one with whom I shared my tomb!
My corrections :
ReplyDeleteHad a think,
Marry
Cut off her head
