The Second Ark (A Poem For Children)

Rating: 5.0


there is a school for young children
known as the Second Ark
if I am ever a 4 year old again
I will request the Ark

the kids draw pictures
they cook, they sing and they count to ten in Spanish
they jump on a trampoline to help people
it's just a school but it looks like heaven

if I could graduate from the Ark
I would carry everything in my head
and bring it to the rest of the world

I agree, it seems pretty good to me. Cooking, singing, Spanish, trampolining, it is more like a learning holiday camp. Thanks for letting us know these places do exist. 10 Karin Anderson

Sounds like a nostalgic, storybook world. Grandfathers are probably very welcome there. Charming, Lee. Kind regards, Sandra
