Jump

Little white lamb jump for joy
On the mountain that's your toy
High in the air jump rope cleared
Call your friends hear them cheer

(Written after seeing a little lamb jumping in the air.  All four legs at least 2 
1/2 feet off ground and I could see the invisible rope and the smile on his 
face. )

A good poet is able to see nature sing, clap, jump, and do a thousand other things which others are not able to notice … Sara, ’tis great that you’ve shown the startling signs of good poetry within you … Carry on! Cheers! Canny.

beautiful and witty, Sara, I've seem sheep(lambs) do this very same thing. They are so cute. Free as the breeze, go do as they please. Sincerely, Love Moses
