how about snowball by sell silverstine? I memorised it in 5th grade, and i still remember it. Here it goes!

I made my self a snowball
as perfect as can be
I thought I'd keep it as a pet
and let it sleep with me

I made it some pajamas
and a pellow for it's head
then last night it ran away...
But first it wet the bed.
Heres a sight you can find it at

Annabell Lee by EA Poe. They will understand it, and probably be crying at the end. Show them the sad side of life.
It's all about learning, and this poem is appropriate for their age.
