Wednesday

Sam got a $15 tip today from the editor of the newspaper! The editor in chief happens to be on his route. He now has enough $$ to get the Wii, but we cannot find it anywhere in town. We have to call the different stores every day. They will soon be sick of us. Sam also got a little job watering a few pots at our neighbors house that's for sale. Such a workin' man!

Here are two poems that Autumn is memorizing at school. I think there is a May Day program coming up, as they're also doing a May Pole dance.

By Emily Dikinson
"Untitled Poem of Autumn"

The morns are meeker than they were --
The nuts are getting brown --
The berry's cheek is plumper --
The Rose is out of town.

The Maple wears a gayer scarf --
The field a scarlet gown --
Lest I should be old fashioned
I'll put a trinket on.


By E.E. Cummings
"In Just Spring"

in Just-
spring when the world is mud-
luscious the little
lame baloonman

whistles far and wee

and eddieandbill come
running from marbles and
piracies and it's
spring

when the world is puddle-wonderful

the queer
old baloonman whistles
far and wee
and bettyandisbel come dancing

from hop-scotch and jump-rope and

it's
spring
and

the

goat-footed

baloonMan whistles
far
and
wee
