Spring Poems and Rhymes

Spring
Today is the day when bold kites fly,
When cumulus clouds roar across the sky.
When robins return, when children cheer,
When light rain beckons spring to appear.
Today is the day when daffodils bloom,
Which children pick to fill the room,
Today is the day when grasses green,
When leaves burst forth for spring to be seen.
-Robert McCracken


A Robin
When a robin cocks his head
Sideways in a flower bed
He can hear the tiny sound
Of a worm beneath the ground.
-Anonymous


It's Spring
Bees soon will buzz,
Rabbits soon will hop,
Birds soon will sing,
Frogs soon kerplop,
Chicks soon will peep,
Kids soon will play,
A fine spring day!
-Robert McCracken


I Dig, Dig, Dig
I dig, dig, dig,
And plant some seeds.
I rake, rake, rake,
And I pull some weeds.
I wait and I watch,
And soon, you know,
My garden sprouts
And starts to grow!


Dig A Little Hole
Dig a little hole,
Plant a little seed.
Pour a little water,
Pull a little weed.
Chase a little bug,
Heigh-ho, there he goes!
Give a little sunshine,
Grow a little rose.



Little Brown Seeds
Little brown seeds so small and round,
Are sleeping quietly under ground.
Down come the raindrops,
Sprinkle, sprinkle, sprinkle.
Out comes the rainbow,
Twinkle, twinkle, twinkle.
Little brown seeds way down below,
Up through the earth they grow, grow, grow.
Little green leaves, one by one,
They hold up their heads and look at the sun.


Seeds
A little seed for me to sow,
A little earth to make it grow,
A little hole, a little pat,
A little wish, and that is that,
A little sun, a little shower,
A little while....
And then, a flower!


Sunflower
Sunflower, sunflower, standing straight and tall,
Sunflower, sunflower, you're the tallest of them all!
Sunflower, sunflower, when your seeds fall to the ground,
Sunflower, sunflower, by the squirrels they'll be found!

The Little Plant
In the heart of a seed,
Buried deep so deep.
A tiny plant,
Lay fast asleep.
"Wake," said the sunshine,
"And creep to the light."
"Wake," said the voice,
Of the raindrops bright.
The little plant heard
And it rose to see,
What the wonderful,
Outside world might be.
