Berry-Sticky
By Kathleen Clark
When summer sizzled
and hazy skies buzzed,
I’d follow the dusty path
to the backyard berry patch.
It didn’t matter that flies or honeybees
had tasted the ruby nectar before me.
My skinny arms and lanky legs
bled a patchwork red
from thorns and vines,
but I didn’t mind.
One for the bucket, two for me.
The sun-warmed berries popped
so easily between my cheeks;
each sticky, sweet, sugary treat
Slipping slowly down my chin
left a purple-y grin.
One for the bucket, two for me.
Grades 5 and 6
8. WRITE the following with pen, on lined, 3-ringed binder paper:
Country Vegetables
By Eleanor Farjeon
The country vegetables scorn
To lie about in shops,
They stand upright as they were born
In neatly-patterned crops;
And when you want your dinner you
Don’t buy it from the shelf,
You find a lettuce fresh with dew
And pull it for yourself;
You pick and apronful of peas
And shell them on the spot,
You cut a cabbage, if you please,
To pop into the pot.
The folks who their p[otaroes buy
From sacks before they sup
Miss half of the potato’s joy,
And that’s to dig it up.
Grades 7 and 8
9. WRITE the following with pen on lined, 3-ringed binder paper:
from Blueberrries
by Robert Frost
“You ought to have seen what I saw on my way
To the village, through Mortenson’s pasture today:
Blueberries a big as the end of your thumb,
Real sky-blue, and heavy, and ready to drum
In the cavernous pail of the first one to come!
And all ripe together, not some of them green
And some of them ripe! You ought to have seen!”
“It must be on charcoal they fatten their fruit,
I taste in them sometimes the flavor of soot.
And after all, really they are ebony skinned:
The blue’s but a mist from the breath of the wind,
A tarnish that goes at a touch of the hand,
And less that the tan with which pickers are tanned.”
