Children's Poetry: Wrapping Up With Emily
The last two contributions to Children’s Poetry Month are poems by Emily Dickinson, so I’ll join in and contribute one from this hauntingly mysterious poet, too. - Jen of joythruChrist has The Daisy Follows Soft the Sun.
- Kim from Hireath posts one she learned along with her son a few years ago.
- And here’s one of my favorites from Emily:
I’m nobody! Who are you?
Are you nobody, too?
Then there’s a pair of us — don’t tell!
They’d banish us, you know.
How dreary to be somebody!
How public, like a frog
To tell your name the livelong day
To an admiring bog!
I’ll entertain guesses as to what March’s theme will be. Except from Pam, who already knows.
