"NEW DAY"
by: Ian McMillan

The day is so new
You can hear it yawning,
Listen:

The new day
is yawning
and stretching

and waiting to start.

In the clear blue sky
I hear the new day's heart.


"JUST DOING"
by: Stephen Bowkett

Your legs know how to walk
Your eyes know how to cry
Your mouth knows how to talk
Your heart knows how to fly.


"IF YOU HAVE"
by: Anon

If you have plenty, be not greedy,
But share it with the poor and needy:
If you have a little, take good care
To give the little birds a share
