Poem #1 - The Piffin Puffin

There was a puffin who lived on a cliff
and all he could say was 'piff, piff, piff'.
He moaned and he groaned,
he huffed and he puffed,
the next thing he said was 'puff, puff, puff'.

All the other birds tried to understand him,
but all they could hear was his piffin' and puffin'.
Then in the end after a year
the birds understood what they were meant to hear.
The puffin was trying to speak just like a human
but he sounded better like
a plain old puffin.
