London1
I stand tall and tell the time,
tourist love this face of mine.
Near the Thames I proudly stand,
the loudest clock in all the land.
BIG BEN
I tell stories centuries old,
of kings and queens,
crowns, diamonds, and gold.
Ravens guards me night and day.
If they leave, you should be scared.
THE TOWER OF LONDON
With milk and sugar, warm and sweet,
people drink me as a treat.
At 5 o'clock I am the king.
If you don't try me,
you'll miss the thing!
TEA WITH MILK
I stand proudly in shiny red.
You use mobiles now instead.
Long ago you'd call from me.
What London symbol could I be?
TELEPHONE BOX
Next to Big Ben I proudly stand.
To speak here,
politicians raise their hand.
Laws are made here night and day.
The king also visits, they say.
THE HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT
Round and soft, with an orange heart,
chocolate on top, a sweet work of art.
Served with tea, I taste just great,
It's right in front of you -
a perfect little cake.
JAFFA CAKE
I am big, I am round,
high above I turn around.
My eyes can see far and wide.
What's my name?
Come take a ride!
THE LONDON EYE
I am red, with two floors.
I will show you London up close.
I go around the city with pride.
Hopefully, you enjoy the ride.
DOUBLE-DECKER BUS
The king and his wife live here today.
Guards stand still, night and day.
Tourists stop and look amazed.
What's the name
of this royal place?
BUCKINGHAM PALACE
I lift my arms for ships so high,
boats sail under as they pass me by.
Two tall towers help me stand.
I look massive! I look grand!
TOWER BRIDGE
I am black and I drive you around.
My steering wheel
is on the other side.
Wave your hand and I will stop.
Londoners love this mighty hop.
BLACK CAB
I may look a little like a snake,
but dangerous I am not,
for goodness' sake.
If you take a boat ride, you will see,
the heart of London next to me!
