New Poem

I know I am new here but I just had to share!! Susie is the cutest thing and won her form poetry prize with this piece
which I think everyone should stick on their refrigerators and read if you ever feel grumpy or a sour puss!!! The only thing is she didn't give it a title. Any ideas? I think maybe "Sunshine" or "The Bright Side of Life".


In the morning when you are tired
or grouchy
here's some thoughts
to cheer you.
Rainbows come in all colours
they are not prejudiced!
Fishes jump for joy
every day!
A tortoise can sleep for a year!
Witches aren't real and can't hurt ya!
God is in His Heaven.

Hi Marisha. Welcome to you and to Susie. What about 'Susie has it sussed' ? Are you familiar with that term?

Charming!

I am bit dislexic and tend to read the ending as
"God is in His Heaven and can't hurt ya!"

But that's probably not such a good title for it.

Ever hear of Kenneth Koch's

- Teaching Great Poetry to Children" ?
