A Monster in my Toilet

Room 11 showed their monster pictures in assembly and said the monster poem that inspired them. Here it is.
There's a monster in my toilet,
All yellow fangs and claws.
It bangs against the lid,
And when you flush it roars.

I saw it only last night,
It was swimming like a shark.
during daytime it is sleeping,
But it comes out when it is dark.

My dad says I am joking,
My mum thinks it's a prank.
But it goes splashing in the bowl,
And hides in the water tank.

Once I tried to catch it,
I used a piece of cheese.
I thought it would be simple,
But it escaped with graceful ease.

I think I'll leave it in there,
Yes I think I'll let it be.
But in future I'll be careful,
Especially when I wee!

Not sure who the poet is.
