I have the most amazing story to tell you!!!
I mean it’s quite a fascinating scene.
There was a nest in the window
With a bird that would sing
One morning I caught a glimpse of eggs -
I counted….maybe four?
They all started to crack and shake
My eyes waiting for more
I gasped and was very startled
As a beak began to show
Eight tiny beady eyes greeting me….
And to them
I said Hello!
A teacher had once told me
Their favorite field trip
Was unlike any other
They went to see
What had to be -
Every fish you could find
in the deep blue sea.
But I took that as a shock
‘Cause there’s one thing they forgot.
There was that time
We stood in line
To see a Zebra mop.
I’m having such a bad hair day!
Don’t even know what to wear day!
I’m sleepy and I’m yawning…
And washing my face didn’t wake me.
I took a brush to my hair to straighten
- But nothing seems to help.
I tried,
I tried,
And tried some more
Then let out a sigh…
Such an appealing smell invades my nose
I cannot wait to take a taste!
I spent this morning and afternoon
Kneading dough and placing icing on some cakes.
I made many rolls, some cupcakes, and pastries -
Marbled brownies and cookies fill a shelf.
You would think all of this was made for a crowd…
But Nope!
It’s all for myself!
I took a stroll one afternoon
To a park around the block from me.
A new neighborhood site
the city seemed to have built overnight
And that’s when I saw an old tree
A giant compared to those around
A trunk that was so wide.
I sat under it for a moment
To take a break -
From the heat
I wanted to hide.
So many branches and large leaves
And its roots ran real long
It’s bark was rough and furrowed
But held many birds that sang a song.
On a hot sunny day
I thought a trip to the beach would be quite nice.
I packed up all of my belongings
and even thought I’d take my bike.
I made a few sandwiches -
Some lemonade and tea.
Packed a few extra
In case someone would want to eat with me
I arrived very quickly
Set my blanket in the sand
Started eating a delicious lunch
But it was taken out of my bare hands
A seagull was just spying
While flying way high above
Took my lunch away from me
A sandwich that I loved.
