Monday's Poem: Oops!

Oops!

Dripped, dropped, downed.

My ice cream's on the ground.

My toesies dare

To taste the fare. 

Dripped, dropped, downed.

Monday's Poem: My Face

My Face

My face is very different

Some people laugh at me

You may laugh

You may point

But I love me.

I've had my different face

Since I was one day old

You may laugh

You may point

But I love me.

I wish you wouldn't laugh

I wish you wouldn't point

I'm just like you

I'm me all through

And I love me.

Monday's Poem: The Really Me

The Really Me

My mommies love me

inside out.

They love me

outside in.

They really love--

I know they love--

the really me I am.

They love the me

I'm figuring out,

the me that cries

and sometimes shouts.

They really, really,

really love

ME

ME

the me I am,

the really me I am.

Monday's Poem: April Fool

April Fool

I love eating green beans

and taking a nap,

picking up toys

and taking a bath.

Me, me, me, mine

are words I don't like.

I'm two years old now--

a peaceful, wee tyke.
