Small children and sometimes students of English as a second language can get mixed up with time
and tense. Here is a poem which makes nonsense of Time and Tense – just for fun.
Can you write it out in the present tense, and then change it to the other tenses also?
This morning I go to the station
But the weather was very bad.
The sun will be bright and shining
But I’m feeling awfully sad.
As I walk along the pavement
I had such melancholy thoughts
For I’ll be thinking of my maths exam
And this will make me feel distraught.
Also, today we’ll study English
The subject was “Time and Tense”
But I’m a dreadfully silly person –
Who didn’t have any sense.
