RANDOM RHYMES AND POETRY


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!”

Love that cat

Like a horse loves to run

I said love that cat

Like a horse loves to run

Like to call her in the morning

Love to call her

“Hey there Hon !”

Love that owl,

like a cheetah loves to run

I said I love that owl

like a cheetah loves to run

like to call him in the evening

call him out

For nighttime fun

Like a bubbly drink is fizzy

"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
