Turn the table upside down
Upside down
Upside down

Turn the table upside down
My turn riding

Push and pull; I’ll ring my bell
Ring my bell
Ring my bell

Push and pull; I’ll ring my bell
While I’m riding

Ride the table; don’t tell mom
Don’t tell mom
Don’t tell mom

Ride the table; don’t tell mom
She won’t like it!

A Little Song

Scott Ennis — Sun, 19 Feb 2012 17:56:40 +0000

Writing a little song.

I like the sound of words in little songs
I like the way they beat, just like my heart
I like to write where every word belongs
Just give me pen and paper and I’ll start!

A sonnet is a kind of little song
A lyric poem made of fourteen lines
Ten syllables don’t make each line too long
I like the way each word and beat combines

I want to write my little songs all day
I want to sing my little songs all night
In dreams my little songs will find a way
To give me gentle peace while stars shine bright

I like the sound of words in little songs
I think the sonnet’s where my heart belongs

My Sick Doll

My Sick Doll

My doll felt warm; I thought that she was sick
Said sister: “That’s a silly thing to think!”
I wanted her to rest and feel good, quick!
I nursed my doll while sister had her drink

I love my doll and sister likes her tea
I love my sister too; I think she’s smart
When I get sick, she’s just as good to me
As I am to my doll; I love her heart

I want to be a nurse to my sick doll
I’ll nurse her back to health the kindest way
Perhaps I’ll be a nurse to one and all
I’ll practice on my doll until that day

My doll may not be sick, like sister said
But I can still be kind and feel her head.

Feeding the Ducks with Beau

Feeding the Ducks With Beau

I found some bread to take and feed the ducks
I sat beside their pond and broke the bread
I think they thought the bread crumbs were deluxe
At least I’m sure they liked that they were fed
They didn’t seem to mind my big dog, Beau
Five ducklings and their mother paddled up
To get the breadcrumbs I would tear and throw
Beau comes with me since he was just a pup
We like to feed the ducks; they like us too
They’ve never been afraid of Beau; he’s kind
I think there’s part of Beau that’s duck; I do!
But if he’s only dog, I still don’t mind
When I find bread, Beau knows we’ll feed his friends
Beside the pond, where friendship never ends!

Red Riding Hood

Red Riding Hood

Red Riding Hood had walked the woods before
A basketful of food upon her arm
She took it through her grandma’s cottage door
Where she and grandma dined without alarm!
But one day when her grandma was too sick
To rise up from her bed to lock her door
A wolf came in and played a big bad trick
He gobbled grandma up and wanted more!
He dressed like grandma, climbed into her bed
Red Riding Hood came in, devoid of fear
“What teeth you have,” was what the young girl said
The Wolf replied, “To eat you with, my dear!”
Just then a hunter did what hunters do
He saved Red Riding Hood and grandma too!

Merry Christmas eep!

Merry Christmas eep!

Jingle Bells

Dashing home from school
Be-cause I missed the bus!
O’er the snow so cool
Trying not to cuss!
Bells that I can hear
Make my dashing bright
And they tell me that it’s near
To Merry Christmas Night!

(chorus)
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way
Oh what joy it is to hear
Bells jingle every day!
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way
Oh what joy it is to hear
Bells jingle every day!

Earth

Here’s a song I wrote using the music from an old song I learned in South Africa.

Care for Earth

Water, Air, and Land

(to the tune of “Boobejaan Klim die Berg”)

V1.

Earth’s the home where we live
It’s such a pretty planet
Earth’s the home where we live
It’s such a pretty planet
Earth’s the home where we live
It has such a lot to give!
Hooray! for the planet we call home!

Oh, please be careful
Oh, please be careful
Earth’s water, air, and land need care

V2. Water

I can swim in a lake
That’s filled with clean, fresh water
I can swim in a lake
That’s filled with clean, fresh water
I can swim in a lake
Keep it clean, for goodness sake!
Hooray! for the planet we call home!

Oh, please be careful
Oh, please be careful
Earth’s water, air, and land need care

V3. Air

Every breath is a gift
Breathe deeply and enjoy it
Every breath is a gift
Breathe deeply and enjoy it
Every breath is a gift
That can make your spirit lift
Hooray! for the planet we call home!

Oh, please be careful
Oh, please be careful
Earth’s water, air, and land need care

V4. Land

Food is good, that’s for sure
We grow it and we eat it
Food is good, that’s for sure
We grow it and we eat it
Food is good, that’s for sure
It grows best on land that’s pure
Hooray! for the planet we call home!

Oh, please be careful
Oh, please be careful
Earth’s water, air, and land need care
