Analysis of Frolicking With Dick & Jane & Sally Part 1 Mondayby Joe Hix



Dick & Jane went Out to Play After School The other Day, Then We  Saw Sally Come , Kindergarten was Such Fun, It Was Just Letting Out & Then Sally Began to Shout! Her Building Blocks Had Fallen Today, Tumbling Down & Going Astray.  The House  That  She had Built Today, Was Green & White With Bay Windows Looking Out!  Where Did Sally Run & Hide, Hide & Seek & You Will Find. It Did  not  Take Us Long ‘cause Spot & Puff Led Us Along, Behind The Rosebush She Would be  Laughing so Joyfully.
Jane Was So Cute in Her Little Green Dress With Her Blond Hair Blowing , What a Mess. Jane Had Made Something Too. A Little Red Cutout Just For You. When You Folded it Out, It Made Us Laugh &  Start to Shout  , A Line of Dancers only 3 !  Lined Up For You & Me. Summer Had Gone & The Autumn Winds Came, Leaves  Falling From the Trees of Many Colors Too ! Soon The Snow Would Come & Be Blistery Cold & We Would Built a Snowman Too. What a Gay Time we will have  , With our Sleigh Sliding Down Going Round & Round. Burr, Burr.... its Cold Today.
Dick Decked out in  a T-Shirt  Too & Shorts of Red & Blue & Brown Shoes Too. Soon He’d be Wearing His OverCoat   & Maybe his Mittens & Earmuffs Too. He Had Scuffed His knee Playing Ball & Had A Bruise From a Tumble or  a  Fall.
Tuesday
Then They Said What Could We Do Today ?, & Had A Wonderful Thought or Two. Along Came Sally with Little Puff in Tow Riding in Her Bright Red Wagon . Then came Spot  who Ran real Fast & Fetched the Ball in The Air, Spinning Round  Without a Care . We Said OH  ,OH, OH, SEE,SEE,SEE , He’s as merry as can Be !
Wednesday
They Loved Their Teacher  Who Was Pretty Sight, Lovely Hair & Tall & Slight,  so They gave Her an Apple  Shiny &  Bright.  She   sat it On Her Desk & Then She Said. What Did You Learn in School Today ??;  Our ABC’s & How to Mold Clay, Learning Manners That    We Used Today, And Making Friendships Along the Way.
