A Thank-you Note to Fall
by Patricia Hubbell

Leaves like brilliant birds that flutter, Wind, that plays with door and shutter,

School, and friends both old and new, Football, soccer, (turkeys too)

Pumpkins, apples, geese in V's Icy lace where puddles freeze, Thank you, fall, for all of these!

Summer
by Elizabeth Swados

Tsss Summer sounds, Tsss Concrete and heat, Sneakered feet on tar, Stepping on melted candy bar, Squish Crunch, crunch Gravel on the street, Whoosh Hydrant waterfall, Zzzzt The sun's an orange basketball Bonk bonk Summer sounds, And then the Summer's gone.

The Dragon fly
by Douglas Florian

I am the dragon, The demon of the skies. Behold my bold Enormous eyes. I sweep ---I swoop -I terrorize For lunch I munch On flies and bees. Mosquitoes with My feet I seize. I am the dragon: Down on your knees!

She Loves You
by The Beatles

She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You think you lost your love, Well, I saw her yesterday. It's you she's thinking of And she told me what to say.

She says she loves you And you know that can't be bad. Yes, she loves you And you know you should be glad.
