Come Skating

by Shel Silverstein

Shel Silverstein

They said come skating;
They said it's so nice.
They said come skating;
I'd done it twice.
They said come skating;
It sounded nice….
I wore roller-
They meant ice.

Poems of the Day
    Ella Wheeler Wilcox

    How Is It?
    You who are loudly crying out for peace, You who are wanting love to vanquish hate. How is it in the four walls of your home The while you wait?
