Merry Christmas, Julio.
Thank you for sharing the lovely poems!!.. two came across my mind that I heard while growing up;
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
(Jane Taylor)
Hey diddle diddle,
The Cat and the fiddle,
The Cow jumped over the moon,
The little Dog laughed to see such sport,
And the Dish ran away with the Spoon.
Until we meet again..
May your troubles be less
Your blessings be more
And nothing but happiness
Come through your door
(Irish Saying)
Yes! Thank you so much for sharing your beloved childhood poems. I love both of those, too. Nursery rhymes were such a favorite. π
Hi Kymber, I love the poems, they’re grand. Fond regards Peter.
Thank you so much, Peter. I’m so glad you enjoyed the poems.
One of my favorite parts of being a kindergarten sub was reading time. I always carried a few of my favorite childhood books with me. It was an opportunity to not only re-read the books but to talk about what made the book so important to me.
That is so lovely. π I think I would have done the same thing if I were a kindergarten sub. The poems above were all ones I remember from a childhood book my aunt got me for Christmas when I was about 7. I wish I still had the book or could remember what it was called so I could find another copy. π
The single most important book of my childhood was The Sailor Dog by Margaret Wise brown. I found a new copy to replace the one I took to the school, as well as being the one I had had since (gracious me) 1967; unfortunately, the new copies omit several pages, due to cost cuts at the Little Golden Book company. I wrote them a letter “demanding” those pages be re-instated and they wrote back a very sweet letter saying nothing would make them happier, but that is the cost of keeping the books at the current price of a dollar something.
What a shame they have removed pages! It doesn’t seem right. I hope you can find a gently used copy that has all the original pages in it.
The blog took me back in time to my childhood days ! Thanks for that,
Thank you so much. I’m glad you liked it. π
Yes they did put a smile on my face. Those are cute poems. I did not read them before. I grew up in Sweden and read Swedish children’s literature so that maybe why. However, we read quite a bit of Dr. Seuss and Shel Silverstein to our kids here in the US.
That’s lovely. Thank you for commenting. π I’m so glad they put a smile on your face.
Thank you also for buying me a coffee. That means so much.
I’ve read the Silverstein one before. I love his poetry. The others were so fun too, Kymber. I need to start eating my peas with honey. π
I love Shel Silverstein’s poetry, too, Diana. π I’m glad you thought the others were fun, too. IKR? LOL
Love these, Kymber! ππ
Thank you, Harmony! β€β€
When I was a child, I liked to learn poems or songs, while my classmates often hated it. π
Today, I try to put them back together in my head, just to make sure, they are still there.
Sometimes it works, sometimes I have to search for the missing parts in my head.
But it’s a funny mindtraining.
We used to share “Poesie Albums” and if you got one, we wrote a little poem in it for our friends
as a memory. I still have mine.
As I’m german, my poem for you is a german one:
“Gib Dein Herz um keine Krone,
gib es einem, der Dich liebt.
Gib Du es nur dem zum Lohne,
der dafΓΌr das Seine gibt.
( Don’t give away your heart for a crown
gift it to someone who loves you.
Only give it as reward to those who give in return their own. β€
That’s lovely, Doris. β€β€ I love this so much.
