Naughty is what they call me

Angry is what I am

mUm says I have to go

Go in the naughty corner

Here I sit in silence

Ten is how long I have to stay

Years is my explanation

 

Crying is what I’ll do

‘Over the Top’ she shouts at me

‘Rat’ is how she describes me

Never will I be naughty again

Leading to break free

Run away is what I do

 

Naughty is what they call me

*All R.

 

Never will I ever be naughty, but

At times I will be

Until you tell me to

‘Go to the NAUGHTY CORNER’

However, you’re not so cool yourself

To be honest

You’re just boring

 

Concerned about me,

Oh, then why do you always have to tell dad.

Really mum, don’t send me to the

Naughty Corner again

Even if I don’t do anything do you

Really have to send me back to the naughty corner.

*Raisa M

 

Never being naughty again

After being in the naughty corner

Unless I’m bad, I’ll go back

Gotta do the time if I’ve done the crime.

Hate it there, even

To look at it.

You should never be naughty.

 

Corner is the word

Oh kids go in

Rarely any come back

Never going again

Even if I am naughty

Really. I’ll just run away.

*Joshua M

 

Naughty as can be and

Always breaking the rules

Until the day when I

Got to go to the corner

How will I survive?

The thought of it made me

Yelp for help.

 

Can’t think of a day where I can be free

Only if I can think of something

Right after I said that I thought of decorating the

Naughty corner, bright colours and shelves with toys. The

Enlightenment gave me the power of being

Really naughty.

*Tshoyang D

 

Never ever will I do something bad

Again.

Using scissors and

Gaining badness. I’m going to be

Honest because I don’t need to go

There. I’d rather spend my time watching

YouTube and

 

Chilling while I’m playing games

On my bed,

Resting

Non-stop and

Eating lots and lots of

Raspberries.

*Sofia S

 

Naughty is subjective.

Any opinion of naughty is

Utterly different from any other opinion around the

Globe there are corners or steps

Hangry or sad, for a good reason or not.

The naughty corner is used for many reasons.

You may have said something bad or broken something good.

 

Corners around the world

Oversee kids whether they deserve it or not.

wRongs are sometimes deserving of the corner.

No one will always agree that

Every bad deed deserves the corner.

Rotten or good, the naughty corner is a part of every child’s life.

*Alex H

 

Not that I like being sent to the naughty corner.

Although it is a good way out of doing things.

Under this roof and in this corner is where I sit and think.

Go to the corner my parents would say when I did something wrong.

Hello corner I would say as I stomped over.

Though it is quite lonely in the corner I wish I brought a toy.

Yellow paint on the walls which I do stare at.

 

Countless minutes sitting there. I do wish it would end.

Over come my mum and dad and sit down

Right beside me. They started to talk and I just

Nodded my head. They let me out.

Every time I go there now I think of what I’ve done.

Right after I go back in because I did something wrong.

*Noah

 

No, I am not going to the naughty corner.

Aww. Come on seriously mum, I’m literally 11!

Urrgh. What’s a good excuse?

Good job Penny. Now you have to look at a wall.

How will I survive for 20 minutes with nothing to do?

Tell us why you did that, they would ask.

You need to drop that bad attitude.

 

Can you put Odin in there instead of me?

Of course it’s my fault.

Rrrrrr. Can I leave now?

No! You can’t. You need to learn a lesson

Extra 5 minutes if you keep arguing, Penny.

Revenge is all mine.

*Penny W
