SUMMER FUN

SUMMER FUN

There's no time like summer for good, clean fun.

In July

by Evaleen Stein

Let us find a shady, wady,

Pretty little brook

Let us have some candy handy,

And a picture book.

There all day we'll stay and play,

And never mind the heat,

While the water gleaming, streaming,

Ripples round our feet.

And we'll gather curly pearly

Mussel shells while bright

Frightened minnows darting, parting,

Scurry out of sight.

What if, what if, - heigho! my oh! -

All the "ifs" were true,

And the little fishes wishes,

Now, what would you do?

Children are Like Roses

Children are like roses. They need nurturing, but we cannot unfold their petals and make them bloom. We can feed them, give them water, enjoy them, love them, impart our knowledge, show them our wisdom, influence them, but we cannot make them bloom. That miracle is in the hand of God.
