Beauty | Rhymes | kids story site

Beauty is seen 

In the sunlight,

The trees,the birds,

Corn growing and people working 

Or dancing for their harvest 

Beauty is heard 

In the night,

Wind sighing, rain falling,

Or a singer chanting 

Anything in earnest.

Beauty is in yourself.

Good deeds,happy thoughts

That repeat themselves 

In your dreams,

In your work,

And even in your rest.  

  

A House , A Home

 A House , A Home 

 

.What is a House?

Its brick and stone 

and wood thats hard.

Some window glass 

and perhaps a yard.

Its eaves and chimneys 

and tile floors 

and stucco and roof 

and lots of doors

 

 What is a home?

Its loving and family 

and doing for others.

Its brothers and sisters

and fathers and  mothers.

Its unselfish acts 

and kindly sharing 

and showing your loved ones 

your always caring
