Love That Boy by Walter Dean Myers
Love that boy,
like a rabbit loves to run
I said I love that boy
like a rabbit loves to run
Love to call him in the morning
love to call him
"Hey there, son!"
He walk like his Grandpa,
Grins like his Uncle Ben.
I said he walk like his Grandpa,
And grins like his Uncle Ben.
Grins when he’s happy,
When he sad, he grins again.
His mama like to hold him,
Like to feed him cherry pie.
I said his mama like to hold him.
Like to feed him that cherry pie.
She can have him now,
I’ll get him by and by
He got long roads to walk down
Before the setting sun.
I said he got a long, long road to walk down
Before the setting sun.
He’ll be a long stride walker,
And a good man before he done.
Love that cow
like a prince loves to bow
I said love that cow
like a prince loves to bow
Love to call him in the morning
Love to call him
“Hey there cow!”

"The Dreamer"
By: Charley Glenn
Once there was a girl
She was a dreamer
She dreamed that she could climb the tallest mountains
And swim the deepest seas
She dreamed that she could leap like a frog
And run like a speeding cheetah
She dreamed about A+ grades
And the smarts of a wise man
She dreamed of orange sunrises
And pink sunsets
She dreamed of flight on silver wings
And feasts of strawberries and pot roast
She dreamed of yachts floating on roaring rivers
And castles spiraling past the clouds
She dreamed of becoming a woman
And then a old one
Then, the dreamer woke up
