The Puppy Chased the Sunbeam
Ivy O. Eastwick
The Puppy chased the Sunbeam
All around the house—
He thought it was a bee,
Or a little golden mouse;
He thought it was a spider
On a little silver string;
He thought it was a butterfly
Or some such flying thing;
He thought—but oh! I cannot tell you
Half the things he thought
As he chased the sparkling Sunbeam
Which—just—would—not—be—caught.
The Sun
John Drinkwater
I told the Sun that I was glad,
I’m sure I don’t know why;
Somehow the pleasant way he had
Of shining in the sky,
Just put a notion in my head
That wouldn’t it be fun
If, walking on the hill, I said
“I’m happy” to the Sun.
The Sun
Annette Wynne
Long before the postman comes
The sun begins to rise,
Far in the East if you should look
You’d find it in the skies.
At first it’s just a streak of light
Then all at once the world gets bright.
Then in the sky from East to West
The happy sun goes on its way.
And all day long it shines its best
To give us pleasant day.
Dear God, who made the day and night,
We thank Thee for the sun’s good light.
The Sunlight Ran
on Little Feet
Ivy O. Eastwick
The Sunlight ran
On little feet
Up the street
And down the street;
It ran across
A flowery meadow
Danced upon
An oak tree’s shadow,
Turned and twirled
And whirled with joy
Around and around
A little boy—
It touched his fingers,
Knees, and toes,
Then freckled him
Upon the nose.
