Analysis of Frolicking With Dick & Jane & Sally ( Part 2 )
Thursday
Mother & Father were Busy today, Mother in the Kitchen & Dad at the Office, Father is so Handsome in His Blue Vested Suit, Mother was so Pretty Dressed in Pink & White & Blue. Wearing a Dress That Fit Like New. So We Decided to Go out to Play, Walk to the Beach & Built SandCastles by The Bay, Climbing Trees along The Way. We Will Be Sure To Look & See & Cross the Street After Looking Both Ways !
Friday
It Was a Rainy Day & We All Knew, Was That We would
Not Be Going Off to School, So We made Homemade Cookies into Shapes of All Kinds & Gingerbread Men Too All in A Line ! Outside The Rain Poured Down. Rain, Rain, Rain, Pound , Pound , Pound ! It Needn’t Stop or Go Away,
When Out in The Rain We Went to Play, Wearing Our Goulashes, Raincoats Too & Trying to Stay Warm Today. We Went Splish, Splish, Splish & Splash, Splash, Splash... & Mother Would Say Please Don’t Get Wet & Catch a Cold Today.
Oh The Memories are Sweet & Every So Neat, And the Books we Read Were Quite a Treat !
It Was So Much Fun Just to Go To School & See Our Friends & to Obey The Rules. But When we Got All Thru the Day & The Bell Would Ring Sending Us AWay !
And Later On ,When We Got Home & Homework Neatly Put Away, Ate Our Dinner & Got together in the Living Room For Some Family Time of Fun & Games; Later That Night After We Said Our Prayers, Mother Tucked Us In & We Went to Bed, She Said God Bless You ,& All That We Have.
So In the Morning of The Following Day, We Had Milk & Cookies Just to Start The Day.The Oatmeal made our Insides Warm. Out to the Backyard We Would Go ,Running & Chasing Spot & Having Fun! Looking Forward Always to Another Day.
