Poetry You Can Hear   

So glad you came by.

I built this page so my faraway grandchildren could find an interesting poem to hear when they visit. There is a list of fun kid activities, too.

The poems are recorded as MP3 files. To hear a poem, download iTunes (it's free), and click  a poem link.

If you are a child in mid-kidhood and older (or a child at heart), listen to poems about:

What trees might see when we ice skate on a lake

What you might think of galoshes and boots

Building a snow zoo

The snow day that didn't happen

Memory of a daughter at 10

Taking a ferry to Martha's Vineyard island 

What a little girl liked about a city park 

What a little girl didn't like about going to the doctor

How you feel on the first night in a summer cabin 

Watching toy planes at war 

Tale of two sisters going out in a rowboat 

What a hawk thinks 

What alligators in an Everglades swamp think of a photographer


  
At  a Renaissance Fair long ago with my fair ladies

 

Tester 1, 2, 3 ...  Let me know if the sound is okay.

After you've heard poems, you could:

  • Draw a picture about a poem.
  • Take a look at my artwork.
  • Write your own poem.
  • Find another poem to hear on the internet.
  • See a satellite view of a place I mention in a poem.
  • Write an email to me and tell me what you like.

Thanks for visiting!

Dear parent or grandparent, 
I'm grateful to my family for teaching me empathy and compassion, for making me see the world through the eyes of other people. It has added to the fullness of my life. 

It's obvious you care about raising your child to be a full human being.   If you ever wonder what you can do to foster your child's compassion, considering visiting the sites listed below and others like it to see how you can help. You are the best role model in their world:

Feed the children

Bring Clean Water to the World's Families

Heal the sick children

Fix children's broken smiles
