Roses are Red, Violets are Blue

April 29, 2021 by ajpassey Leave a Comment

Roses are red
Violets are blue
Sugar is sweet
And so are you!

An early version of the poem read:
The rose is red
The violet’s blue
Sugar is sweet
And so are you.

Skidamarink with actions

Skidamarink

Skidamarink a dinka dink. 
(Put right elbow in left hand and wiggle  fingers)
Skidamarink a doo. 
(Put left elbow in right hand and wiggle fingers)
I love you.
(Point to eyes, hug yourself, and point to others)

Skidamarink a dinka dink.  
Skidamarink a doo.
I love you.

I love you in the morning. 
(Make a big circle overhead  like the sun)
And in the afternoon. 
(Hold arms in circle out in front of you)
I love you in the evening. 
(Move arms in circle down)
And underneath the moon. 
(Release arms and make another big circle overhead)

Skidamarink a dinka dink.
Skidamarink a doo.
I love you.

Valentine Hearts

Valentine hearts, how many do you see?
Valentine hearts, count them all with me.
One for father, one for mother
One for grandma, too.
One for sister, one for brother,
And here is one for you!

Love Is a Circle

February 8, 2017 by ajpassey Leave a Comment

Love Is a Circle

Love is a circle,
Round and round.
Love goes up,
And love comes down.
Love is on the inside,
Trying to get out
Love is whirling and twirling about!

In the middle is a love-day,
Won’t you be my Valentine?
