Afternoon on a Hill

I will be the gladdest thing

            Under the sun!

I will touch a hundred flowers

            And not pick one.

I will look at cliffs and clouds

            With quiet eyes,

Watch the wind bow down the grass,

            And the grass rise.

And when lights begin to show

            Up from the town,

I will mark which must be mine,

            And then start down!

Sunflakes Poem

Sunflakes
By Frank Asch

If sunlight felt like snowflakes,
gleaming yellow and so bright,
we could build a sunman,
we could have a sunball fight,
we could watch the sunflakes
drifting in the sky.
We could go sleighing
in the middle of July
through sundrifts and sunbanks,
we could ride a sunmobile,
and we could touch sunflakes -
I wonder how they'd feel.

Building a Skyscraper

They're building a skyscraper
Near our street.
Its height will be nearly
One thousand feet.

It covers completely
A city block.
They drilled its foundation
Through solid rock.

They made its framework
Of great steel beams.
With riveted joints
And welded seams.

A swarm of workmen
Strain and strive,
Like busy bees
In a honeyed hive.

Building the skyscraper
Into the air
While crowds of people
Stand and stare.

Higher and higher
The tall towers rise
Like Jacob's ladder
Into the skies.

- James S Tippet

Breaks Free

I just want to be
Where the earth breaks free
Of concrete and metal and glass,
Of asphalt and plastic and gas,
Where sun is king
And water is queen,
Where cactus grow tall
And the air is clean.
I just want to be
Where the earth breaks free
Of fences and alleys and walls,
Of factories and traffic and malls
Where owls sleep
In the heat of the day
Waiting for sunset
To hunt their prey,
Where mountains rise
In seas of sand
And coyotes roam
Across the land

- Frank Asch

Poem - We are Plooters

We are Plooters.
We don't care;
We make messes
Everywhere,
We strip forests
Bare of trees,
We dump garbage
In the seas.

We are Plooters,
We enjoy
Finding beauty
To destroy,
We intrude
Where creatures thrive,
Soon there's little
Left alive.

Underwater,
Underground,
Nothing's safe
When we're around,
We spew poisons
In the air,
We are Plooters,
We don't care.

By Jack Prelutsky

Rain Sizes – John Ciardi

Rain comes in various sizes.

Some rain is as small as a mist.

It tickles your face with surprises,

And tingles as it you’d been kissed.

Some rain is the size of a sprinkle

And doesn’t put out all the sun.

You can see the drops sparkle and twinkle,
