I Dressed Myself For School

"A Little Elf"
A little elf
Sat in a tree
Painting leaves
To throw at me.

Leaves of yellow and
Leaves of red
Came tumbling down
About my head.

Cornflake leaves
Upon the trees
Are they a breakfast
For the breeze?

"Mind Your Manners" by Bruce Lansky
Don’t drum on the table.
Don’t play with your food.
Don’t talk while you’re chewing;
it’s terribly rude.
Don’t leave the fridge open.
Don’t slam the screen door.
Don’t throw dirty laundry
all over the floor.

Don’t fight with your brother.
Don’t pull the cat’s tail.
Don’t open your big sister’s
personal mail.

Don’t pester your parents.
Don’t stick out your tongue.
Don’t do what your parents did
when they were young.
