paula green you came to blockhouse bay school and you inspired me to write poems
i wrote a poem about jaguars here it is

jaguars are fast and mysterious
and when they laugh they are heilerios
but they are deadly
so you must tread carefully
or your wounds will be searyos

i also did a picture with this
