Rose and Rita are writing poetry this morning as we stay home from school

Rose and Rita and our neighbor Sarah have been planning a performance that they say they'll perform "in about a year when Sarah is 6 and R & R are 7 or around Christmas" (next week).  This morning Rita and Rose went downstairs to work on songs for the show.  Here are some poems Rose wrote: Ocean Spray I love my o, I love my my my I love my ocean I love the way it sings like a whale I love my ocean I love how it blows like a flower In my ear O I love it so much, it could be 100 things O I love the way the oceans spray I love it I love it It's a lot in my heart. -Rose Seidl Blue Sky Blue blue blue blue blue blue I love the blue sky in my eye I love the colored flowers below I love art any way And IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII love the sky I love the blue sky So do you -Rose Seidl This Kitten I know a lot of kittens but The one I love the most is this kitten She knows me I know her We do a lot together She's sweet as a violet I'm as sweet as a rose We do lots of things together I love this kitten. -Rose Seidl Monday Girl I know a girl from a happy street Candy from Monday Girl She wears a red tutu Music is everywhere when she's there She has black hair and a pink bow. Kids from all over the world Come to get her candy and ice cream For only ten cents. Wherever she goes there's music From her beautiful candy cart. -Rita Seidl You Should Be Aware You should be aware of things that you don't know You should be aware of things that you don't know Cause if you're not aware of things that you don't know, You'll be rising like a ghost in the anafly of toast If you're not aware of things that you don't know. You should be aware of things that you don't know You should be aware of things that you don't know Cause if you're not aware of things that you don't know, You'll be rising through the skies with the blah-blah butterflies If you're not aware of things that you don't know. You should be aware of things that you don't know You should be aware of things that you don't know You should be aware of things that you don't know. -Rita Seidl 10 application/xml false kids poetry snow day in Ann Arbor Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008120122 Firefox/3.0.5 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 carols 68.40.167.222 false true false false true 173251 false false true false false false true 223542 Resource 173251 173239 2154 1231950169131 1231952492379 Controlled Poetry
