I have been gathering new books of poetry to share with you during the month of April! I know you will find some wonderful surprises among them. Please do you best to read at least one poem every day for the entire month, either for your children or for yourself.
Here's mine for today:
Rules
Do not jump on ancient uncles.
Do not yell at average mice.
Do not wear a broom to breakfast.
Do not ask a snake's advice.
Do not bathe in chocolate pudding.
Do not talk to bearded bears.
Do not smoke cigars on sofas.
Do not dance on velvet chairs.
Do not take a whale to visit
Russell's mother's cousin's yacht.
And whatever else you do do
It is better you
Do not.
- Karla Kuskin
