There's a poem I have but I'm not sure the name of it and who the author is but the poem goes


A cannon ball
A lost ballon
A peppermint
A pool of lead

A mighty lump
Of porridge limp
A lamp , a polished
Dustbin lid

The hubcap from
An autoroute
The helmet of
An astronaut

A mottled dish
Or disc at dusk
Will sink almost
(It mostly must)
In mist, or moistly
Float

Discuss anyone know the name

Hi,

Posting the test into Google finds: World of English - Sadler - Google Books (http://books.google.com.au/books?id=C0I1yDYZckUC) (World of English). And on page 71 is the poem! :)

It is called "Full Moon" by a "William Bealby-Wright" apparently.

Ah, the magic of a Google search, eh?
