Holiday Poem Time Again

I cant believe my last post was about Thanksgiving poems, and now it's already time for winter solstice, holiday (Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa) and New Year's themed poems.

And TPCers out there with some great classics or contemporary finds to share?

Happy everything to one and all!

Special Spooky Poem of the Day

The poetry readings are back on at our house! Hooray!!! I won't say the girls woke up begging for a poem, but when I suggested I had a very good and very spooky poem to share with them this morning, they were excited to hear it.

Here is Lewis Caroll's wonderful poem:

Twinkle, twinkle, little bat!
How I wonder what you’re at!
Up above the world you fly,
Like a teatray in the sky.

As you can imagine, this cracked-up my 2- and 4-year-olds to no end. They both love Alice in Wonderland, so I may let them in on the origins of this poem and read an excerpt from Alice tonight for their bedtime book.
