Premium MemberMonorhyme for Children

Goliath frog jumped out of a mailbox
Chased off a dog, a hog, and a fluffy fox
They straight away ran up to a giant ox
ox was terribly ill with itchy chicken pox

You two are on your own! Yelled the irritated fox
Goliath frog jumped all the way back to that mailbox
What do we do now? The hog asked the dog named Knox.
Knox could not answer; his scratchy voice was on the rocks.

Premium MemberEach Leaf

After a summer life,
each leaf has a story to tell.
They turn for eternity,
falling to an embracing earth.
Another autumn,
another cycle of nature,
as children play in the colors
of the season.

Premium MemberKitchen Band


     Whoosh! Swish! Clang!
     It's the six o'clock kitchen band!
     Whoosh of paper towels off the roll.
     Swish as broom threads brush the floor.
     Clang as pots put on to boil!

     Clackety! Clackety! Clack!
     Spoons, forks, and knives,
     Start their chorus to the task.
     Drawers rattle open,
     Serving spoons appear,
     Tapping gently on crystal clear.

     Clap flap! Clap flap!
     First a plate,
     Then a napkin.
     Silverware enters.
     Then at last,
     Scrapping of plates,
     Signals the end of a repast!

Premium MemberPrance


     My sister has a long blue dress,
     Mother made mine too,
     And told us not to make a mess!

     Keep our hands neatly folded,
     Don't prance or scamper about,
     Neither of us wanted to be scolded!

     Then Santa and MS. Claus came.
     On a sparkling winter boat.
     It was too much for us! No joke!
  
     First our knees began to jump,
     Then our feet started to pump,
     Both of us landed in a lump!

     Tumbling, rolling down hill,
     It was too late!
     We couldn't stay still!

     Over and over, we ran up the hill,
     Dropped to our knees,
     And tumbled down still!

     Now our blue dresses are muddy and green,
     I think our mother is going to scream!

Premium MemberHumanity

For all the tolls of the war dead,
for those who starve for bread,
for persecuted martyrs dying in the Lord,
for young and old victims of domestic discord,
I live in grief and sleep in gnashes,
yet, children born are hope for humanity's masses,
precious Jesus, You know many are not moneyed,
though small alms in Your eyes are honeyed. ~

Premium MemberSaturday Morning

Final crumbs of a Saturday repast,
  We knew it wouldn't last!
  Licked all the bowls,
  Mom began to scold.
  We tried to walk away,
  With the food we squirreled away!
  For her to find under a pile of dirty clothes,
  Or hidden neath the bed,
  Boy, did she hold her nose instead!
  So catching us,
  Before the saved food turned to mush, 
  Was much better for us!
  Prevented her from playing the nose hunt game,
  Washing all the clothes just isn't the same!
  By then we had left for the day,
  Headed out to play!
  Snorting in exasperation,
  She sprayed air cleaner,
  And rubbed her hands with lotion.
  See Saturday's repast,
  Had long passed!

Premium MemberMonorhyme Poem For Children

a cute little nipper
sat on the big dipper
his voice was so chipper
when he lost his slipper

it’s gone said the dipper
I know said the nipper
it fell on a clipper
I’ll need a new slipper

laughter from the dipper
charged up little nipper
he leaned down to the clipper
and retrieved his slipper

Premium MemberWaltz For Janet Webb

She wore thick leggings
our childhood polio albatross
mass Sabin vaccine sauce
body snatcher ritual
fixed beautiful legs.

(In early elementary school she wore braces most of the way through 6th grade. We all went to the nearby JHS to drink the approved Sabin vaccine. By 7th grade she had healed. She had beautiful, working legs.) She has recently, physically passed. This is in remembrance of her.)

Premium MemberSix Faerie Children

Six faerie children with a happy hi hey ho!
Know what way to linger, the tulips love them so.
They are eager to please as the roses always know.
The daffodils adore their swinging singing ways, high and low.

Six faerie children in the wind so greatly blow.
They never have an argument or start any kind of row.
Lily of the valley sees them and begins to grow.
They make themselves scarce when they see a hoe.

Premium MemberThese Children Need a Role Model

These children need a male role model, the teacher said.
But, I argued. He would have to be sane, right in the head.
She rolled her eyes, believing that all males are well-bred.
Which tells me that her global knowledge is all but dead.

What about that dude? I ask as he climbs off a mo-ped.
He doesn’t look like our type, said the teacher, Miss. Fred.
The guy laughed at her idiocy, and picked lint off his thread.
This, my dear, is our Principal, Mr. Theodore also called Ted.

She looks embarrassed, and her face turns a lovely red.
These children need a male role model, she quickly tells Ted.
Ted nods his head and says “I have been to my homestead.”
“Shortly, we will be joined by my big brother Take-No-Prisoners-Ned.”

Premium MemberYou Will Love His Children

You will love his children! Their mother said.
They did not care, they wanted to know what he was like.
The guy became their stepfather in two months.
This was shocking. His three sons came to stay too.

Six boys in one home. They loved it! They had the best time.
The marriage gave out in a few years, but the boys remained brothers.
To their dying days, they loved being together.
Glad that something good came out of this brief marriage.

Premium MemberDo Not Say This To Children

I always try not to say this to children no matter how tempted I am.
“Shhh! You’ll wake up the monster under the bed…
And if he gets too loud, the closet crazies will come out
and pull you into the deepest darkest night.  Sleep tight”.
