FOR SAMPLE ONLY
A. There is an old saying ‘as wise as an owl’. People are always

saying that, but the truth is, owls are not always wise. Do
you agree?
Now, read the poem ‘Silly owl’.
Silly Owl

Silly owl don’t sleep all day
You’re missing all the fun.
Silly girl don’t sleep all night
The mice are on the run.

Silly owl why wait ‘til night
just to catch a mouse?
I have plenty, more than twenty
right there in my house...!!!
