Spring Vacation


Today is the last day before the two week spring vacation! Since tomorrow is also the first day of Spring, here is a simple English poem for you...



I Meant To Do My Work Today


by Richard Le Gallienne

I meant to do my work today,

But a brown bird sang in the apple tree,

And a butterfly flitted across the field,

And all the leaves were calling me.


And the wind went sighing over the land,

Tossing the grasses to and fro,

And a rainbow held out its shining hand--

So what could I do but laugh and go?
