I Left My Coat in a Tree

I left my coat Hanging on a tree. A few days later What do I see? A small bird nest In my small coat hood. In that nest were eggs, And I thought that was good. A few days later What do I see? Three or four hatchlings In my coat in the tree. A couple of days later A storm came along. I found my coat on the ground And the hatchlings were gone. I left my coat Hanging on a tree. I hope the chicks flew away And are happy and free.

Sunday School

Children laughing as they play

With the dollhouse and tiny dolls.

Children screaming as they say

“He took my toy away!”


Children cooking plastic food

At the small kitchen made just for them.

Children putting the toy food in their mouths

As we say, “Don’t do that, you can’t lick them.”


Children building houses out of Legos,

And talking about their plans.

Us listening, smiling, and nodding our heads

Even when I don’t understand.


Children stretching out top tubes,

And running around the table with them.

Children falling down and crying

After we told them not to run.


Children dumping blocks onto the floor

As we try to clean up the room.

Children leaving one by one

When their parents pick them up.


Two children asking when their parents are coming

Because they are twenty minutes late.

Parents finally coming to get them,

So we can eagerly make our escape.
