BIRDS
Birds, birds, everywhere
On the groimd and in the air.
There is one looks like he’s in f\ir
And the red bird is so fair.
A boy shot a robin in the head,
I thought the robin v/as dead.
I went over and picked it up.
It was lively as a year old pup,
I saw an old blue jay
And a red bird the other day.
And I saw a nuthatch.
Down by the side of a potato patch.

School Days
There’s only one more month of school.
Oh, dear, how fast it goesj
I\nd then vacation time is here
With summer sun and summer clothes.
And ’most a million things to do
That’s just a heap of fun;
But after all think back when school had
just begun
We were all so happy then.
And proud as we could be,
IVe had passed Fifth Grade and walked
upstairs so every one could see.
iind what we could do no one else could
do so well;
Road, write, arithmetic, and how wo
could spell.
We v/ere going to set a mark for other
grades to come.
I hope our teacher understands
And will just praise us some.
For though vie have not done quite all
That vre had planned to do
I’m sure that we have tried our very
best
And maybe we will get through,
i^nd when we get a nice long rest
Our minds will grow you see.
And then v/hen school begins next year>
We v;ill surely be.
The smr^rtost kids that ever were
in Highlands Seventh Grade,
/md make the very best grades that ever
have been made.
And though vre hate to say goodby
To our teacher and the rest.
There is another grade and year that we
*. ‘ ■■■• must do our best.
So this is just to say goodby to my
teacher and classmates
/md may September find us all, in
Seventh Grade up here,
