Pop Song for Tweens- Don't Talk so Fast

Please don't talk so fast Don't take me too seriously Please don't make me laugh Sometimes when I laugh I start to wheeze And if you hold my hand It might be possible  that sweaty palms  might hurt our plans Yeah blow some bubbles and hand out some balloons  and put on high tops and dance around the room Ahhhhhh yeah Hey yeah Ahhhhhh yeah Hey yeah  Play some guitar or maybe violin And we might make it to being best of friends Ahhhhhh yeah Hey yeah Ahhhhhh yeah Hey yeah  (Needs Chorus/Hook)

Zippers Are Nifty

 Zippers are nifty. They go up and down. So does the Yo-Yo, but it can go round and round. X-Rays see through you to see what's inside. Winds are much fun when kites in them glide. Volcanoes erupt and lava ooze to the ground. Umbrellas go up when the rain falls down. Turkeys run fast to avoid those big nets. Strawberries and whip cream is always the best. Rabbits sniff carrots from far far away. Quails scatter quickly when dogs are astray. Picnics can happen both day and night. Octopus swim swiftly when avoiding a fight. Needles do mend and needles can burst. Milk can be good to satisfy thirst. Ladders are used to climb very high. Kittens purr softly when they are near by. Jungle gyms full of children at play. Iguanas stay warm in the green leaves all day. Hound dog opens one eye to see who is there. Gophers dart under ground where they have not a care. Flutes ring out in song as dancers go round. Eagles perch high above without nary a sound. Dandelions in hand get blown in the air...

Training Wheels

Image
Pink, I think it was a pink bicycle. But was it for my birthday or Christmas? I can't be for certain. It was small, so I believe I was small. I grew out of it fast, though. I remember my mother with me as I mounted my first bike. It had training wheels. At first sight I noticed it would be safe. But in my little mind, I also wondered if it would be fast. I take off on the little bicycle. It is a bit cumbersome to peddle. My mother is by my side encouraging me. At once I am struck with absolute certainty-- this bicycle is not going as fast as it could. I may have jumped off. I may have still been on the seat. I know for a fact that I demanded in that very instances for the training wheels to be taken off. I am sure I had a fit. I maybe even pitched a fit and flung and flailed my arms and threw my head back and perhaps even shed some tears. I may even have tried to personally with my four or five year old self, remove the training wheels. I wanted them gone. I needed them gone. I dem...

Candles

Candle one, Candle two, Candle three, Candle four It took more candles, more candles all on the floor Round Candles, Skinny Candles, Short Candles, Stout And every spot one was lit, the boy blew it out Could hardly imagine the time that it took to place all in the candles in crannies and nook No matter all the effort; imagine all the same How one boy found the stamina to douse every flame

Huck the Duck: In A Predicament

Huck the Duck wanted his dinner But, Huck the Duke could have been thinner He ate like a hungry furious baboon Never stopping to chew all the food he'd consume One day Huck went swimming as was his ambition When into the water he went on his mission And all of a sudden he started to sink He looked all around and started to think How in the world do I get out alive when suddenly he gave his wings a try But flap as he could he could not take flight Huck found he was too fat and he made worse his plight Out of the blue came a goose and a guinea They managed to grab poor Huck out in a jiffy When gotten to shore Huck was oh so delighted He pledged then and there to alter his diet The next time Huck went out for a swim He was lean and mean like he'd come from the gym He confessed that he ate far too much for his size and agreed to eat less and get more exercise

Track: The Real Dog

Image
Now Track always entered the dog park looking for puddles, big round trees and squirrels to chase. This was his mission and in that order. Everyday Track would hear the occasional big guy with a pal dog of his say, "Now Track's a real dog!" or "That's what I call a real dog!" This always  made Track's head go sideways and his ears flip and flop. He just could not understand what was meant by this. He saws Dotson's, and beagles, and terriers go by. He ran with Shepherds and Greyhounds, and Huskies. He played alongside Labradors, Bulldogs, poodles and more, but could not figure out what a real dog he was. To him all the dogs were real and nothing fake or deceiving. They had tails and ears like his. They have coats of fur like his. The scratched their butts like him, and they licked their friends like him. They ran through puddles like him. They loved to cuddle like him. They jumped over tree stumps like him. They even fetched balls like him. They c...

Tatum Learns to Brush Her Hair With All of the Orchestra Standing There

Tatum sees the brush before her it greets She winces and blinks and taps her feet But the brush does not rush to her hand for the task When suddenly a band appears in a flash And they all say, “Do not fear!” We come to aid in all our sections, dear Let’s see what we can do to help out A tap gives the conductor; "ah-hum" he does spout The violins begin to play Take your brush and move this way They motion her to start at her temples She smiles a bit and shows her dimples The clarinets then play a tune And the brush begins to move straight through The flutes and piccolos do join in And suddenly hair is all but flying The sides are a bit more trouble, so the saxophones, Trombones, French horns and Oboes Take their cue and usher deep strokes To keep the brush paced with a good tempo Now we near the back or kitchen Tatum begins to start some twitching “hold fast!” says Timpani, Cello and Bassoon And Baritone, Tuba, and Bass ent...
