SAFE AND SOUND (A LITTLE ACTION SONG), by ANNETTE WYNNE First Line: Safe and sound in the ground Last Line: While mr. Rough wind rides around Subject(s): Plants; Seeds; Winter; Spring | ||||||||
SAFE and sound in the ground. Little seeds are lying so ''" Just like this ''" all in a row, But when April dances round ''" Like this ''" with singing sound, And there's not a trace of snow Up they'll jump before we know ''" Like this ''" and start to gi'ow. All day long the small plants try This way ''" to reach the sky; Soon little flowers peep all about. And then when school at last is out The children gather in the sun And pick the flowers one by one''" So, ''" and then comes snow; Once again all in a row Little seeds lie underground, While Mr. Rough Wind rides around. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SPRING LEMONADE by TONY HOAGLAND A SPRING SONG by LYMAN WHITNEY ALLEN SPRING'S RETURN by GEORGE LAWRENCE ANDREWS ODE TO SPRING by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD ODE TO SPRING by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD SPRING FLOODS by MAURICE BARING SPRING IN WINTER by CHARLOTTE FISKE BATES SPRING ON THE PRAIRIE by HERBERT BATES THE FARMER'S BOY: SPRING by ROBERT BLOOMFIELD CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS by ANNETTE WYNNE |
