Monday's Poem: A Second Birthday

A Second Birthday

Today is my birthday.

Today I am two.

My favorite toy

Is a Choo Choo!

I have a big cake.

Today I am two.

A chocolate cake

Fun to Chew Chew!

Today is my birthday.

Today I am two.

Mommy and Daddy

I love You You!

Monday's Poem: Evening Walk

Yellow Bushes

I take a walk with Grandma

In the desert early evening,

And yellow bushes glow

As daylight starts to go.

Sometimes I think the sun

Leaves pieces of itself--

Like memories--to show

How day can stay some more.

Monday's Poem: Half Moon and Half Moon

Half Moon and Half Moon

When I was walking up the path,

I looked up in the sky.

Half the moon was sitting there

Like half an eaten pie.

Where did half moon's half self go?

It's someplace I can't see.

Is it dark?  Is it cold?

Does it get scared--

LIKE ME?

I wonder if the stars reach down

To sprinkle it with light.

I hope they do and they are friends,

So dark moon feels all right.
