Be The Best poem

If you can’t be a pine on the top of the hill,
Be a scrub in the valley – but be
The best little scrub by the side of the rill;
Be a bush if you can’t be a tree.
If you can’t be a bush be a bit of the grass,
And some highway happier make;
If you are a muskie then just be a bass -
But the liveliest bass in the lake!
We can’t all be captains, we’ve got to be crew,
There’s something for all of us here,
There’s big work to do, and there’s lesser, to do,
And the task you must do is the near.
If you can’t be a highway then just be a trail,
If you can’t be the sun be a star;
It isn’t by size that you win or you fail -
Be the best of whatever you are !
 - Douglas Malloch

Moral stories for kids

LITTLE GIRLS WISER THAN OLD PEOPLE

LITTLE GIRLS WISER THAN OLD PEOPLE

It was an early Easter. In the yards lay snow, 

and rills ran down the village. A large puddle had 

run down from a manure pile into a lane between 

two farms. And at this puddle two girls, one older 

than the other, had met. Both of them had been 

dressed by their mothers in new clothes. The little 

girl had a blue dress, and the elder a yellow one 

with a design. Both had their heads wrapped in red 

kerchiefs.

After prayers in the Church, the two girls went to 

the puddle, where they showed their new garments 

to each other, and began to play. They wanted to 

plash in the water. The little girl started to go into 

the puddle with her shoes on, but the older girl said 

to her: 

“Don’t go, Malasha, your mother will scold 

you. I will take off my shoes, and you do the same.’’

The girls took off their shoes, raised their skirts, 

and walked through the puddle toward each other. 

Malasha stepped in up to her ankles, and said:

“It is deep, Akulka, I am afraid.’’

“Never mind,’’ she replied, “it wil upl not be any 

deeper. Come straight toward me !’’

They came closer to each other. Akulka said: 

“Malasha, look out, and do not splash it up, but 

walk softly.’’

She had barely said that when Malasha 

plumped her foot into the water and bespattered Akulka’s new dress, and not only her dress, but also 

her nose and eyes. When Akulka saw the spots on 

her dress, she grew angry at Malasha, and scolded 

her, and ran after her, and wanted to strike her. 

Malasha was frightened and, seeing what trouble 

she had caused, jumped out of the puddle and ran 

home.

Akulka’s mother passed by; she saw her 

daughter’s dress bespattered and soiled.

“Where, accursed one, did you get yourself so 

dirty?’’

“Malasha has purposely splashed it on me.’’

Akulka’s mother grasped Malasha and gave 

her a knock on the nape of her neck. Malasha 

began to howl, and her mother ran out of the house.

“Why do you strike my daughter?’’ she began 

to scold her neighbour.

One word brought back another, and the women 

began to quarrel. The men, too, ran out, and a big 

crowd gathered in the street. All were crying, and 

nobody could hear his neighbour. They scolded 

and cursed each other; one man gave another man 

a push, and a fight had begun, when Akulka’s 

grandmother came out. She stepped in the midst of 

the peasants, and began to talk to them:

“What are you doing, dear ones ? Consider the 

holiday. This is a time for rejoicing. And see what 

sin you are doing !’’

They paid no attention to the old woman, and 

almost knocked her off her feet. She would never 

have stopped them, if it had not been for Akulka 

and Malasha. 

While the women exchanged words, Akulka 

wiped off her dress, and went back to the puddle 

in the lane. She picked up a pebble and began to 

scratch the ground so as to let the water off into the 

street. While she was scratching, Malasha came up 

and began to help her. She picked up a chip and 

widened the rill.

The peasants had begun to fight, just as the 

water went down the rill toward the place where 

the old woman was trying to separate the men. The 

girls ran, one from one side of the rill, the other 

from the other side.

“Look out, Malasha, look out !’’ shouted 

Akulka.

Malasha wanted to say something herself, but 

could not speak for laughter. The girls were running 

and laughing at a chip which was bobbing up and 

down the rill. They ran straight into the crowd of 

the peasants. The old woman saw them and said to 

the peasants:

“Shame on you before God, men ! You have 

started fighting on account of these two girls, and 

they have long ago forgotten it: the dear children 

have been playing nicely together. They are wiser 

than you.’’

The men looked at the girls, and they felt 

ashamed. Then they laughed at themselves, and 

scattered to their farms.

-Count Leo N. Tolstoy

(Adapted from a translation 

by Leo Wiener)

The Parts of Speech poem

The Parts of Speech

Every name is called a noun,

As field and fountain, street and town,

In place of noun the pronoun stands,

As he and she can clap their hands.

The adjective describes a thing,

As magic wand or bridal ring.

The verb means action, something done,

To read and write, to jump and run.

How things are done the adverbs tell,

As quickly, slowly, badly, well.

The preposition shows relation,

As in the street or at the station.

Conjunctions join, in many ways,

Sentences, words, or phrase and phrase.

The interjection cries out, “Hark !

I need an exclamation mark!

Through poetry, we learn how each

of these make up THE PARTS OF SPEECH.

It’s a small world ... 7th class poem

1.1 It’s a small world ...

It’s a world of laughter, 

A world of tears.

It’s a world of hopes,

And a world of fears.

There’s so much that we share

That it’s time we’re aware

It’s a small world after all ...

It’s a small world after all

It’s a small world after all

It’s a small world after all

It’s a small, small world.

There is just one moon

And one golden sun

And a smile means

Friendship to every one.

Though the mountains divide

And the oceans are wide

It’s a small world after all ...

It’s a small world after all

It’s a small world after all

It’s a small world after all

It’s a small, small world.

Animals poem

Animals

I think I could turn and live with animals, they are

so placid and self-contain’d

I stand and look at them long and long.

They do not sweat and whine about their condition,

They do not lie awake in the dark and weep for their sins,

They do not make me sick discussing their duty to God,

Not one is dissatisfied, not one is demented with

the mania of owning things.

Not one kneels to another, nor to his kind that

lived thousands of years ago,

Not one is respectable or unhappy over the whole earth.

So they show their relations to me and I accept them,

They bring me tokens of myself, they evince

them plainly in their possession

I wonder where they get those tokens,

Did I pass that way huge times ago and negligently drop 

them?

                           - Walt Whitman
