Today's Highlighted Poem
Sunrise
by Lucy, age 12, England
Oh summer days,
And summer nights,
Do not compare,
To my delights.
No field of red,
With grass so long,
Makes me feel,
Like I belong.
So look above,
When the day is new,
At all those loaded,
Piles of dew.
And I'll look down,
Look down at you,
Because flying high,
Is what I do.

At all those loaded,
Piles of dew.

Look down at you,
Because flying high,
