First Day of School
We’re walking, we’re riding
We’re all on our way,
We’re ready to read, write,
Spell, add, and play.
We’re meeting our classmates
We’re shouting, “Hooray!”
For the brand new school year
That’s starting today.
Crayons
Learning my colors is a treat,
I’ll keep my crayons very neat.
Tucked inside their little house,
They’ll be quiet as a mouse.
I’ll be careful not to break them,
Toss, drop, or even shake them.
I’ll take them out one by one,
And have myself some coloring FUN!!!
Crayons
I had a box of crayons,
All shiny, straight and new.
I lent a friend one crayon,
And-OOPS-it broke in two!
My friend said she was sorry,
But I said, “I don’t care,
‘cause now we both can color
with one crayon-we can share!”
Five Little Crayons
Five little crayons, waiting in a row.
The first one said, “I’m red, you know!”
The second one said, “I’m green like a tree.”
The third one said, “I’m blue like the sea.”
The fourth one said, “I’m yellow as the sun.”
The fifth one said, “Being purple is fun!”
Five little crayons, happy as can be,
Coloring pictures with you and me!
I’m a Little Crayon

I have a little apple,
Red and round.
On a tree it is found.
If you take a bite you will see
Just how tasty it will be!!!
Apples
Way up high in the apple tree.
Two little apples smiled at me.
I shook that tree as hard as I could
Down came the apples- - -
Mmm, they were good!!!

Sweet and tart and good to eat.
Apples green and apples red,
Hang from branches overhead.

High off the ground,

And hold on tight.
I pick that apple
And take a big bite.

For everyone to see.
It looked so big and terrible,

In the field, once a flower,
You grow plumper by the hour,
Green, then orange on the vine
Until it’s finally harvest time.
I’m a Jack-o’-Lantern

They picked me from a pumpkin vine.

Just light my candle and watch me glow!

November Poems
One Fat Turkey
One fat turkey went strutting by
He shook his feathers and
Winked his eye.
He flapped his wings and his head
Gave a wobble.
As he looked at me and said,
“Gobble, gobble, gobble.”
Mr. Turkey
Mr. Turkey’s tail is big and wide.
He swings it when he walks.
His neck is long, his chin is red.
He gobbles when he talks.
Mr. Turkey is so tall and proud,
He dances on his feet.
And on each Thanksgiving Day
He’s mighty good to eat.
Guess Who
I am not a drumstick. No, not yet!
I need to eat more, so fat I’ll get.
Corn is what I like and lots of grain.
Sometimes I gobble, can you guess my name?
If you guessed my name on your first try.
You know I have a problem.
I have to tell you why!
If you would be so kind, I have one wish.
Help me out and eat some fish!
Turkey, Turkey
Turkey, turkey, look at you.
Please be careful what you do.
Thanksgiving Day is almost here.
We eat turkey every year.
Go and hide out in the woods.
We’ll eat pizza, like we should!
Turkey, Turkey
Turkey, turkey
In a rush,
Hide yourself
Behind the brush.
I know exactly
Where you wobble---
I can hear your
“Gobble, gobble!”
Turkey Dinner
Turkey dinner, turkey dinner,
Gather Round, gather round,
Who will get the drum stick?
Yummy, yummy drum stick,
All sit down, all sit down.
Cornbread muffins, chestnut stuffing,
Pudding pie-one foot high,
All of us were thinner,
Until we came to dinner,
Me-oh-my, me-oh-my!

Little Snowman
Sung to: I’m a Little Teapot

Flying over me!
Santa Claus
Santa Claus is big and fat.
He wears black boots
And a bright red hat.
His nose is red
Just like a rose.
And he “Ho. Ho, Ho’s”
From his head to his toes.

You are loveliest by far,
Up on top of our tree

January Poems
Snowman
Snowflakes falling
Thick and fast,
Build a snowman
Make him last. . .
Snowflakes falling,
Swirling, slow,
My snowman melted---
Where’d he go?
Snowflakes
Way up high
In the winter sky,
Two little snowflakes
Caught my eye.
Down to the ground
They fell without a sound.
And before very long
It was snowing all around.
The Snowman
I’m a little snowman
Round and fat.
There are my buttons.
There is my hat.
When the sun comes out
I can’t play.
Slowly, slowly I just melt away!
Snowman
A chubby little snowman had a carrot nose.
Along came a bunny and what do you suppose?
The hungry little bunny was looking for his lunch.
Ate the snowman’s nose.
Nibble, Nibble, Crunch!
Mr. Snowman
Snowman, snowman where did you go?
I built you yesterday out of snow.
I built you high and I built you fat
I put on eyes, a nose, and a hat.
And now you’re gone---
All melted away.
But it’s bright and snowy outside today.

Little Rabbit
One little rabbit
Underneath a tree.
One Little rabbit

Two big back feet.
One wiggly nose
And whiskers so neat.
Two Front paws.
Two eyes that shine.
One furry body.
And a fluffy tail behind.
Caterpillars
Ten little eggs,
All in a mound.
Out come caterpillars,
Crawling all around.
Next they will sleep
And we know why.
Soon they'll come
Out as butterflies.

Roy G. Biv
Roy G. Biv is an
Odd name for a fellow
But what his name means is
Red Orange Yellow
The G is for Green
Which as you may know
Comes right in the middle
Of every rainbow.
Next: Blue and Indigo
More pale than dark
Then V for Violet--
And that completes the arc!
Painting A Rainbow
Sung to: Up on the Housetop
First comes the rain cloud
Passing by,
Dropping raindrops in my eye.
Then comes the sunshine up so high,
Painting a rainbow in the sky.
Ho, ho, ho, see the show,
Ho, ho, ho, see the show.
Come see the rainbow, way up high,
Nature is painting in the sky.
In May
There are just three little letters in the merry month of May.
There are just three little letters but they have a lot to say.
They say a lot because the month of May is full of things.
In May we might see butterflies
Just trying on their wings,
Or turtles hatching from their
eggs, or kids who play on
swings. We have a lovely time in
May with all the fun it brings.
If I were a Bird
Sung to: I’m a Little Teapot
If I were a bird I’d sing a song
And fly around the whole day long.
Then when it got dark I’d go to rest
In my snug and cozy nest.
One a penny,
Two a penny,
Three a penny,
More,
Four a penny,
Five a penny,
That’s a nickel more.
Six a penny,
Seven a penny,
Eight a penny,
More,
Nine a penny,
Ten a penny,
That’s a dime for the store.

Tune: Jingle Bells
Leprechaun, leprechaun
Oh, where can you be?
Come a little closer now,
Don’t be afraid of me.
Leprechaun, leprechaun,
You bring luck my way.
I’d really like to see you
On this St. Patrick’s Day!
Leprechaun, Leprechaun
Tune: Jingle Bells
Leprechaun, leprechaun
Hiding in the hay
Leprechaun, leprechaun
Don’t you run away.
Leprechaun, leprechaun,
Let’s go out and play.
Leprechaun, leprechaun,
It’s St. Patrick’s Day!
April Poems
Tune: Are you Sleeping?
April showers
April showers
Puddles, too
Puddles, too
Thunder and lightning
Thunder and lightning
Scaring you!
Scaring you!
Easter’s Here
Tune: Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star
Easter, Easter, Easter’s here;
Bunnies, chickies—let us cheer!
Easter Bunny hops with joy,
Eggs for every girl and boy.
Easter, Easter, Easter’s here;
Bunnies, chickies—let us cheer!
Little Rabbit
One little rabbit
Underneath a tree.
One Little rabbit
As “hoppy” as can be.
Two long ears.
Two big back feet.
One wiggly nose
And whiskers so neat.
Two Front paws.
Two eyes that shine.
One furry body.
And a fluffy tail behind.
Caterpillars
Ten little eggs,
All in a mound.
Out come caterpillars,
Crawling all around.
Next they will sleep
And we know why.
Soon they'll come
Out as butterflies.
Funny Bunny Hop
Funny, little bunny, goes
Hop, hop, hop!
Funny, little bunny, please
Stop, stop, stop!
Wiggle your ears and crinkle
Your nose.
Then wiggle, wiggle, wiggle
Right down to your toes.
May Poems
May
Sung to: Are you sleeping?
Green grass growing
Green grass growing
May flowers bloom
May flowers bloom
Farmers planting gardens
Farmers planting gardens
Lawnmowers zoom!
Lawnmowers zoom!
Roy G. Biv
Roy G. Biv is an
Odd name for a fellow
But what his name means is
Red Orange Yellow
The G is for Green
Which as you may know
Comes right in the middle
Of every rainbow.
Next: Blue and Indigo
More pale than dark
Then V for Violet--
And that completes the arc!
Painting A Rainbow
Sung to: Up on the Housetop
First comes the rain cloud
Passing by,
Dropping raindrops in my eye.
Then comes the sunshine up so high,
Painting a rainbow in the sky.
Ho, ho, ho, see the show,
Ho, ho, ho, see the show.
Come see the rainbow, way up high,
Nature is painting in the sky.
In May
There are just three little letters in the merry month of May.
There are just three little letters but they have a lot to say.
They say a lot because the month of May is full of things.
In May we might see butterflies
Just trying on their wings,
Or turtles hatching from their
eggs, or kids who play on
swings. We have a lovely time in
May with all the fun it brings.
If I were a Bird
Sung to: I’m a Little Teapot
If I were a bird I’d sing a song
And fly around the whole day long.
Then when it got dark I’d go to rest
In my snug and cozy nest.
