MANY THINGS TO DO...

Poem by Marie Sellers


I climbed a hill today
Even though it was far away.
Never did much climbing before,
Don't know why I had to
Climb that hill so high today.

I rode a horse today--
Why, I do not know.
I am afraid of horses
And afraid of heights--
Still, I rode a horse today.

I caught a fish today--
Wasn't easy for me.
I don't like worms,
Have no patience to fish
But, I was fishing today.

I built a little fence today.
Am not a carpenter,
Hammers, nails not for me
So how I cannot really say--
Yet, I built a fence today.

I sang a joyful song today--
And I know why!
My soul was happy
And felt free--so I sang
A joyful song today!
