Notes About The Poem

                 Refrains in 8 Poetry Contest.  Sponsor Joseph May. Posted 8/3/25

 

Things I love


Puppies who rumble playing tough Kittens who curl in balls of fluff New born babies ever so small I love these things, I love them all Roses that drape over a fence Pansies so bright, colours intense Sunflowers? Yes, growing so tall I love these things, I love them all Robin who flaunts his russet breast Sparrow sat brooding on her nest The blackbird with his fluting call I love these things, I love them all Voices that sing, church bells that ring Children who dance, the highland fling Burnished leaves in the Autumn fall I love these things, I love them all.
