3. Two Poems Some People People Charlotte Zolotow
Isn’t it strange some people make
You feel so tired inside,
Your thoughts begin to shrivel up
Like leaves all brown and dried!
But when you’re with some other ones,
It’s stranger still to find
Your thoughts as thick as fireflies
All shiny in your mind!
Rachel Field
People
Some people talk and talk
and never say a thing.
Some people look at you a
And birds begin to sing.
Some people laugh and laugh
And yet you want to cry.
Some people touch your hand
And music fills the sky.
Charlotte Zolotow
