Rain

Raindrops falling 
Like tiny diamonds
Clouds as grey as slate.
If you are driving
Anywhere,
You will probably be late.

Nonsense


Have you ever,
ever wondered,
Why the sky isn't green?
Why sidewalks
Have cracks between?
Why cats meow
Instead of bark?
 Why there's a moon
When it's dark?
Why cars don't fly?
And we wave to say "bye"?
Don't ask me,
Cuz' I don't know.
That's why I wrote this poem.

Christmas is The Best Holiday!

Ornaments dangling on the tree,
Christmas cookies oh so yummy.
Presents for our family dear,
Christmas is the best time of the year!

That's Why We Call it Christmas


Christmas is only once a year,
A time to love our family dear.
When came down Love 
From heaven above,
A Christmas tale for all to hear.

 The evening was dark and without light,
Then from the sky, oh so bright.
Angels singing, full of might,
On that first Christmas night.

     For that night, Christ was born,
Shepherds bowed down in the morn.
Wise men came, their arms were lifted
To the babe who was gifted.


Love came down, and hope was found,
For He came to save us.
Praise him from the sky to the ground,
That's why we call it Christmas.












Christmas Ornament

Glittery-glowy
On the tree,
Christmas ornaments
Are so pretty.
Shiny-shimmering,
The lights shining thro'
Oh so pretty,
Do you like them too?

Poem of Christmas

Bells a ringing
Carol singing

Oh so glowy

I'm so happy
I could cry!

Mona Lisa


Mona Lisa's expression
Upon her face,
Is full of serenity
And calm grace.
There are hills and mountains
In the background,
And a little lake that is round.
She's a very nice painting 
By da Vinci
Isn't she?

Sing


Sing a song of sorrow,
Sing a song of joy.
Sing for a girl,
Sing for a boy.
Songs are spoken poetry,
You sing words instead of say.
You can sing at nightime,
Or in the day.
Sing a song on the road,
Sing in a tree.
Sing anyplace, anytime,
Songs can set you free.

Bird

Little birds, singing in a tree.
One turns it's head,
And looks at me.
He sings so sweet,
So very sweetly,
As he's singing in that tree.

Sugar Cookies

 
Baking sugar cookies
They don't need spice or leaven.
Just a lot of love,
And they will taste like heaven.
Flour, sugar, vanilla,
Butter and some egg.
Mix them up and bake 'em,
And your family will beg.
Add some yummy frosting,
And some sprinkles too,
Those cookies will be amazing,
Believe me, it's true!
 
 
Here's a yummy recipe
It's tasty and easy.

The Butterfly and the Bumblebee

One day the bumble-bee,
Went for a ride in the country.
"For there was so much to see,"
Thought the bumble-bee.

He met a lovely butterfly,
Flutter-fluttering way up high.
"Oh what a happy fly, am I"
Thought the butterfly.


They met and said,
"We ought to be wed!
They were wed by a beetle named "Ted",
That is what I said.

They were so happy, so happy you see.
The butterfly and the bumble bee.
They had butterbees three, in a tree,
The end, you see.

Determination

Determination:
Striving to follow your dreams,
No matter how hard it seems.
Believing that you can do it,
That you will succeed.
To get  determination?
You just need to believe.

Lazy Kitty



Few things are more peaceful,
Than a sleeping cat.
Purring himself to sleep,
On the doormat.
He sometimes sticks
His paws in the air,
And sleeps through the day,
Without a care.
Oh, wouldn't you like
To laze about like that,
Wouldn't you like
To be a cat?

Believe!

Do you truly believe,
Without the tiniest doubt,
That you CAN do it?
The thing YOU dreamed about?
Then if you truly believe,
And follow your heart,
Not stopping to grieve,
You just have to start.
Then you CAN do it!
Your dream WILL come true.
It starts with a wish,
And ends with you!

The Squirrel

The little squirrel chatters
As he climbs up a tree.
He reaches the top,
And looks at me.
He chitters and skitters,
So happy and free.
As he climbs,
Up the great big tree.

My Shadow



In the morning,
My shadow is a baby,
Two feet tall.
At noon I can't
See it at all.
For dinner, it's a giant!
Ten feet tall,
And it is there 'till sunset,
Joining the shadows on the wall.
