Giggle, Hop And Skip Poem by Evelyn Judy Buehler
Giggle, Hop And Skip
Into the woods I strolled one day, with my twin sister,
For if I had left her behind, I'd surely have missed her.
We were looking for wild strawberries, but we got lost,
Under the warm sun shining, as breezes blew very soft.
We wandered for a while, then we sat to rest by a lake,
And after eating strawberries, we saw a talking snake.
He had seen us walking, and he took us partway home,
Then a pink bunny guided us, so we didn't roam alone.
Red and pink flowers danced, to the whims of wild wind,
And they giggled and talked to us, as we turned a bend.
Fluffy clouds waved from above, as green froggy hopped,
Doing a lily pad skip, and pointing the way as he stopped.
Finally, a big gold and blue bird, led us out of the woods.
We said goodbye then, and dashed home in happy moods.
We got baskets full of strawberries. We'd had a lovely day,
In the enchanted woods, where animals talk, laugh and play!
A great read for children and adults! Excellently presented and crafted with great rhyme, rhythm and superb imagery.Amazingly entertaining! Top Marks and to my favorites.
3) and above all, writing poems and stories for children is no childplay. You prove it, Evelyn, yet again. I have a younger brother who writes poems for children. But I can't.
I have only in recent years begun writing nursery rhymes, and I enjoy it very much. My love of nursery rhymes has followed me since childhood. Thank you for your complimentary remarks.
2) Really, it is the other way round, I feel. One can be a real poet only if one has one's childhood still alive within…
The child in us never dies. This beautiful poem mixing fantasy with reality proves that. For a poet it is important to nurture the child within!
