Geronimo and the Merry Martians.

One evening our Geronimo,

Was tucked up nice and tight,

But then he had the feeling,

That something wasn’t right.

“My goodness me,” he muttered,

“I feel a sense of doom,

I’ve landed in the strangest place,

And left my cosy room.”

“Exactly where I’ve ended up,

Is very hard to tell,

But every time I try to move,

Things haven’t gone too well.

As if that wasn’t bad enough,

I’m hearing music too,

And wish somebody was around,

To show me what to do!”

“Don’t worry,” said a tiny voice,

“You’re now in outer space,

And when you take a look around,

You’ll grow to love this place!”

The little Bear was unconvinced,

And he began to scoff,

“This has to be a joke,” he laughed,

“Your rocker you are off!”

“I’m not,” piped up the voice again,

“Do have more faith in me,

This planet is entirely real,

As you will shortly see.

Now kindly do the decent thing,

And open up your eyes,

I guarantee that when you do,

You’ll get a big surprise!

Young Teddy was still sceptical,

But did as he was told,

And when he looked around him,

His breath he had to hold.

“Oh golly,” he squealed loudly,

“I feel like I could swoon,

For in case I am mistaken,

I’ve landed on the moon.”

“A Martian wearing glasses,

Is standing next to me,

So it isn’t any wonder,

That I’m puzzled as can be!”

“Don’t worry,” smiled his zany friend,

“My Christian name is Mike,

And all the time I’m with you,

Disaster will not strike!”

“Now will you please stop fussing,

And come and join the gang,

For when we all start dancing,

Things go with such a bang!”

“Good heavens!” cried our furry Friend,

“I still say you are mad,

But to join you in this nonsense,

I’d still be very glad!”

“Oh brilliant,” Mike chuckled,

“You’ve really made my day,”

And before he even knew it,

They were safely on their way.

Soon the sound of techno music,

Boomed out so loud and clear,

“Don’t tell me,” grinned Geronimo,

“I think we’re finally here!”

“That’s right,” his new friend answered,

“We live for having fun,

So now I’ll introduce you,

To simply everyone.”

“Come here please lads,” he hollered,

“There’s someone you should meet,

A very jolly visitor,

Who’s light upon his feet!”

Then much to Bears amusement,

They came over one by one,

And giggled “Nice to meet you,

Come and join in all the fun!”

“We’re Matthew, Mark and Martin,”

They went on to explain,

And once you’ve joined our merry band,

You’ll be as right as rain!”

“I know,” smiled Teddy broadly,

“I couldn’t ask for more,”

And in no time whatsoever,

He was dancing on the floor.

But then he got too cocky,

And he sadly tripped and fell,

He shouted “Come and help me,

As things aren’t going well!”

  But much to his frustration,

The  Martians didn’t hear,

And  someone kept on saying,

“Get out of bed my dear!”

Our Chum was really livid,

Then he opened up his eyes,

And when he looked around him,

He gasped in sheer surprise.

He was back inside his bedroom,

All tucked up nice and tight,

“Where am I now?” he murmured,

“This surely can’t be right.

I was dancing with some Martians,

On the surface of the moon,

Don’t tell me our adventure,

Has ended all too soon.”

Jane kissed him on the forehead,

“I’m afraid it has,” smiled she,

“Now we’ll have to get a move on,

Or late for school you’ll be!”

Geronimo groaned heavily,

“Things always end this way,”

But then he leapt straight out of bed,

To start a brand new day!

THE END.
