What Squeaks in My Creepy House?

Close your eyes and do not peek!
Do you hear that squeak, squeak, squeak?
In the room I hear a squeak!

Queen Jean

Queen Jean is as skinny and lean as a green bean.
So we ask her to please take a seat at our feast.
We let her read what she can eat for this big meal—a  beast of a feast.
She reads what she can eat: meat, green peas, green beans, and cheese.
She reads what she can eat: a sweet treat made of wheat.
And she gets to eat the meat, peas, beans, cheese, and a sweet treat.
 
When she finishes with the meal she can leave the feast.
But with this one big feast, Queen Jean will still be quite lean.

Beam at the Sight of Ice Cream

We beam when we see ice cream.

Ice cream!
 
We beam when we see whipped cream.
We scream for the whipped cream.
“Whipped cream!”
We beam when we get the whipped cream.
Whipped cream!
 
We beam when we get whipped cream on ice cream.
What a dream—to get ice cream with whipped cream!

Our team lets out a scream for whipped cream.
“Whipped cream!”
We scream for whipped cream!
We scream, “We want whipped cream on our ice cream!”
What a dream!

A Dream about a Beach

I had a dream.
You were in my dream!
 
In my dream, we went to the beach.
On the beach, I was eating a peach.
You wanted to eat a peach too.
So we took a seat on the beach to eat our peaches.
Then we wanted ice cream.
So we got some and took a seat on the beach to eat our ice cream.
 
After eating our peaches and ice cream, we played in the sea.
We saw birds with yellow beaks flying over the sea.
We say fish leaping up from the sea.
We had fun at the beach by the sea.
 
I loved that dream about the beach.
