Monday's Child - 1
Mr. Rabbit
Has a habit
Of tender carrots stealing
Mr. Squirrel
His tail unfurled
Objects to this with feeling
Mr. Crow
And Mrs. Crow
Look on with obvious longing
Miss Sweet Robin
Head a bobbin’
Resumes melodious songing
Mr. Farmer
And Mrs. Farmer
Welcome them all with grace
One and All
In Earth’s Grand Hall
They each have found their place

Hello All.
I was invited to join a new writing group for children over at http://childrensverse.blogspot.com/
There will be a prompt of some sort and then you write a short verse or story. This weeks' prompt was the lovely picture above, so I wrote a little poem to go along with it.
If you are interested in joining this group please do click on the link above and check it out. It promises to be great fun!

Your poem is so tender and I love the last verse especially,

Hi again!
Okay, so I gave it a try - I was so inspired by you. Unfortunately, I was unable to link my site to the original challenge. Any suggestions? BTW, I bragged about you below my submission. I think that you are a tremendous talent,

You are so full of love and talent, Julia. Such a rare mix, indeed. Not to mention your natural motherly wisdom... Oh, I have a lot to learn from you! :)) oxx
I love it Julia! I am looking forward to reading what you create/write each time. :)
Oh Julia, this is sooo sweet! You brought those little creatures & Mr. & Mrs. Farmer to life so perfectly.
