poem in your pocket...

[krismom]

Tomorrow is put a poem in your pocket day at my kids school. Does anyone know (or can think of) and cute Disney related ones?
Thanks in advance!

Ok...
I'm late and it's not Disney related, but couldn't resist not sharing one that I have SOMEHOW memorized since 4th grade!!!

Once there was an elephant
Who tried to use the telephant...
No..no, I mean the elephone
He tried to use the telephone
(Dear me, I'm not certain quite, that even now I've got it right)

How e'er it was, he got his trunk
Entangled in the telephunk
And the more he tried to get it free
The louder buzzed the telephee
(I fear I'd better drop the song of the elephop and telephong)

Who can see the wind?
Neither I nor you
But when the leaves hang trembling
the wind is passing through.

Who can see the wind
Neither you nor I
But when the trees bow down their heads
the wind is passing by,

I am riding on a cloud
in the middle of the sky, making idle conversation
with the birds who happen by.
I'm uncertain how I got here, But I surely do not care.
I'm enchanted to be floating unencumbered in the air


I may try to catch a rainbow with my rainbow-catching mitt,
build imaginary castles, or do nothing else but sit.
What I do is unimportant, just as long as I can stay
in my chariot of billows on this dreamy summer day.

Probably too late - but Spike Milligan is great for kids poems:

Rain
--------
There are holes in the sky
Where the rain gets in,
But they're ever so small
That's why rain is thin.

Kangaroo - Kangaroo!!
----------------------
The kangaroo of Australia
Lives on the burning plain,
He keeps on leaping in the air
'Cos it's hot when he lands again.
