Robins, sparrows, and Ducklings, oh my! :)

Let's go to the pond -

let's feed those ducks.

We can grow more fond

of each other on this trip!

Let's go hear the beautiful robins

as they sing to each other through the trees.

Let's hear them chirp out beautiful songs,

as we walk along this nature path, so free!

Let's watch the sparrows soar

so high above our heads.

Touching us to our cores,

as we wander on our way.

Let's continue on this path,

let's stop to watch those crows.

We can wander over there,

to you I will certainly show.

Now we have the Common Loon,

what a nice bird this is.

What a pretty and catchy tune.

Wail aloud the songs of nature.

This land is made of hills,

this land is full of rocks.

Trees are almost everywhere,

they can shelter hawks.

We have large-eyed owls,

they go, “Who-who-who!”

They will turn to you, they scowl,

Just when you look at them.

Innocence

Sweet, perfect child;

innocent in soul and mind.

In words and actions you are kind,

fair in everything you do.

Clap your hands,

paint until your heart's content.

Dance or sing,

Anything for smiles, I will bring

Your style's so cool!

You have so much class,

you stand out from the mass.

You are awesome, for sure!

Never stop believing,

never stop striving.

You can do this!

You will not miss!

You love that doll,

let's brush her hair.

Or change her clothes,

or draw a picture there.

You love those dinosaurs,

let's play a video game.

Or play some truth or dare,

or play with tigger and pooh bear.

Maybe we should paint,

or draw pictures of each other.

Better yet, I will draw you,

you can always draw another.

I wish you the very best

as you face the challenges ahead.

I sincerely hope you face no dread,

Just wonderful, spectacular days.

My Mother, Acrostic Poem no. 3

My Mom is so sweet,

you would never believe.

My mother is the best,

one-in-a-million – she's great;

there has never been, nor ever will be a

human who cares so deeply, and understands so well;

everlasting, never-ending love

right from the start, we captured one another's hearts.

I will never love another in this unique way...
