A poem about child labor in the 19th century – by Abbey<\/p>\n
I hear creaking, sighing,
\nI see fingers flying.
\nThere is smoke and fire,
\nand faces that are tired. <\/p>\n
With all of this, I dread
\nThat I will never go to bed.
\nAnd even though my wages are few,
\nI still have hope for something new. <\/p>\n
“The World Gone Upside Down” – by Payton<\/p>\n
The grass just ate the cow,
\nI don’t know how.
\nA man is climbing a tree
\nwhile a squirrel is very busy
\ndoing his taxes,
\nsigning those faxes,
\ndoing it very quickly.
\nA sad man gives a smile,
\na happy man gives a frown,
\nit’s the world turned upside down! <\/p>\n
I had more to say \/ pictures to post, but my WordPress isn’t in the mood to cooperate…grrrrr. I’ll see if my resident computer whiz (a.k.a Randy) can figure it out :( <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
