My Growly Tummy

When my tummy growls and moans,,,
 I know its time to feed me!
But my food bowl is missing!
    Where can it be?
I want to eat!!
I want to feed my growly tummy!

 And do you know that once upon a time,
two years ago,
  I used to run up and down the stairs.
 I was quick as  a bunny!
 I know I could run up there..just like old times,,,
if I really wanted to..
But most important right now is to find my food bowl!
I wonder if its up the stairs?

When The Bean Seeds Grew Up!

I waited and waited for a long time.

I  looked everyday for  the little white  bean seeds to peek their eyes  out of the brown  dirt....

.I knew the little bean  seeds were sleeping
 and that  they were waiting for just the most perfect of days,
when the time was right,
and then they would wake up.

I waited some more.
   And then  the rains came,
 and the sunshine came
 and then one day
 the little seeds puffed them selves up like a blow fish in the ocean.
 And then when the sun warmed their  brown dirt bed,
 they stretched their necks and arms to the sky,,
 and made leaves.
And then the leaves made blossoms,,
and then beans were born!!

Beans are one of my favoritest things!
And I love to eat them!

nummy!

The Gray Clouds and the Ones that Roar!

I wonder if you heard the trees singing this morning?

I think if you listen  very closely- you can still  hear them sing.
Come sit beside me and let's listen!

  The trees  are so happy!
And maybe you are wondering why?
  You see,  the trees are singing and dancing all over the mountain tops,
 and in the shadows
because Mother  Earth,,,
 gave them rain drops!
 Yes!! Rain drops  to fall on their thirtsty branches!
And coolness for their toes to wiggle deep into the earth.

And rain drops came for all of us!!  For you and for me!
The trees wrote these words especially for this moment,,
  and the trees taught me to sing along!
" Thank you for the rain drops,,  !!!  la,, la  la,,, thank you"
Little  baby birdies that have  never seen rain drops,,, ohh they  thank you too,,,,
and all of the forest animals..!
Thank you for the white billowy clouds!
Thank you for the gray clouds!
Clouds please come back and bring more rain!

And thank you for the clouds with the voice that sounds like a lion roaring.

Come again rain drops,, come back again soon,
We love you.

My Magic Butterfly- I Remember You

She was flitting alone in the shadows of the green bushes.
  I saw her with my own eyes
and I didn;t  want to look away
because she was so beautiful!
All the birds were singing,,,
and it was just like a dream that came back to me
from another time.

I knew instantly!
It was "Blue"  the most magical butterfly of all!

She hoovered and floated and dipped in and out of  the greenrey.
She seemed to be singing a silent song,
 silent yes,
 but I could hear and feel the rhythm!

 I sat quietly in the green moss,
 and I watched and watched,
 and then I saw there were two butterfly's
and then I saw there were thousands!  Thousands of butterflys like the colors of the rainbow.

" Blue," I whipsered ,,,,,"Do you remember me, oh do you remember me?"

Suddenly,
 just like magic , our eyes locked,,,
 and Blue fluttered her wings faster than fast,,,
 and floated  around my ears, and then she landed on my nose,!

"
"Oh Blue,", I whispered,,, "lets fly together again",
just like long ago on that summer day!
And at that moment Blue said,

"It's time !!"
"Tweedles, close your eyes, and count to three, and together we will fly."
