Penguin songs and poems<BACK

I'm a Little Penguin
(tune of I'm a Little Teapot)

I'm a little penguin
Black and white.
Stout and fluffy
What a sight!
 
I can't fly
but I love to swim.
So I'll waddle to the water
and dive right in!

 


The Penguin

Roxanne Williams 

I am a bird you know quite well, 
All dressed in black and white. 
And even though I do have wings 
They're not designed for flight.  

I waddle, waddle, waddle, 
On my funny little feet. 
Across the icy snow I go 
To find a fishy treat!


Percy Penguin 

Catherine Y.  Hongey

Percy Penguin looks so proper, 
In his long black tails, 
Stiff white shirt, and neatly grommed, 
Correct in all details. 
He's so important, chest way out, 
As he pitters patters by, 
But here is something very funny-- 
He forgot his TIE!


Penguin

Meish Goldish

I know a bird 
That cannot fly: 
Penguin is its name. 
It cannot fly, 
But it can swim 
With speed that wins it fame! 
I know a bird 
That lives on ice 
And waddles by the sea. 
It looks so cute 
In its black and white suit, 
As handsome as can be!


In Praise of Penguins

Robin Bernard

These funny birds in fancy clothes 
may waddle in the snow, 
but when they reach the icy sea 
Just watch how fast they go!

Their song sounds like a donkey's bray, 
they cannot soar or fly, 
yet penguins manage very well,
and let me tell you why...

Their feathers keep out water, 
their blubber keeps out cold, 
their wings make perfect paddles 
because they do not fold!

Their tails are good for steering, 
they brake with both their feet- 
So tell me now, from all you've heard... 
Aren't penguins NEAT?


Many a penguin...

by Sue

 

Many a penguin had its birth
At the bottom of the earth.
It learned to swim in waters chill, 
And of fish did eat its fill, 
Then joined those birds that live there still
