Here's another offering to Poet's Corner from a young Treorchy lady who now attends Ysgol Gyfun y Cymer.

"The Monster in my House"

There’s a monster living in my house

He wears a baseball cap

And if he comes into my room

I’ll give him such a slap.

He gobbles up great mounds of food

But only mash and beans

He won’t eat fruit or meat or fish

And certainly not greens.

He stomps about from room to room

But we know where to find him

Discarded coca-cola cans

He leaves a trail behind him.

I think this monster must be deaf

He likes his music blasting

He must have got some magic powers

‘Cos his soap is everlasting.

Now a little bird has told me

That this monster’s here to stay

At least until my brother James

Has grown and moved away.
