Sing a song of people
by Lois Lenski
Sing a song of people
walking fast or slow;
people in the city,
up and down they go.
People on the sidewalk,
people on the bus;
people passing, passing,
in back and front of us.
People on the subway
underneath the ground;
people riding taxis
round and round and round.
People with their hats on,
going in the doors;
people with umbrellas
when it rains and pours.
People in tall buildings
and in stores below;
riding elevators
up and down they go.
People walking singly,
people in a crowd;
people saying nothing,
people talking loud.
People laughing smiling,
grumpy people too;
people who just hurry
and never look at you!
Sing a song of people
who like to come and go;
sing of city people
you see but never know!
hope you like it!
