Pig

Skyler Yang 2017 (Guangzhou)



I keep a pig in my room,
It’s a yellow pig.
I named him Jusco.
He lives on a shelf.
He really loves coins.
He really loves to eat coins for dinner, lunch and breakfast.
When he eats too many coins,
His tummy will get bigger and bigger.
He looks like a balloon,
He starts to fly higher and higher.
Suddenly a blast!
Here comes a coin rain!
Goodbye Jusco!
