You will need to think of a creature, what journey they are going on, where are they travelling to, how they are travelling and what creatures will they meet on the way. Remember to make the poem as interesting and unique as you can.

The Owl and the Pussy Cat went to sea

In a beautiful pea green boat.

They took some money

And plenty of honey

Wrapped up in a five pound note.

The Owl looked up to the stars above

And sang to a small guitar,

“Oh lovely Pussy. Oh Pussy my love

What a beautiful Pussy you are,

You are,

You are,

What a beautiful pussy you are.

Pussy said to the Owl, "You elegant fowl!

How charmingly sweet you sing!

O let us be married! Too long we have  

travelled:

But what shall we do for a ring?"

They sailed away, for a year and a day,

To the land where the Bong-Tree grows

And there in a wood a Piggy-wig stood

With a ring at the end of his nose,

His nose,

His nose,

With a ring at the end of his nose.

Dear Pig, are you willing to sell for one shilling

Your ring?" Said the Piggy, "I will."

So they took it away, and were married next day

By the Turkey who lives on the hill.

They dined on mince, and slices of quince,

Which they ate with a runcible spoon;

And hand in hand, on the edge of the sand,

They danced by the light of the moon,

The moon,

The moon,

They danced by the light of the moon.
