Up A Hill
Up a hill,
Down a hill,
Over them I may roam,
But after all my walking,
There’s no place like my own.
Your home.
Mother From a Family of Eight
This mother comes from a family of eight,
Supports her children in spite of their weight,
Turns around without being called,
Has held you since the time you crawled.
Who is she?
“Mother” Earth. The family of eight are the eight planets, all of the world’s population is quite a load, the earth is always spinning (or turning around) and unless you’re an alien, you’ve been on earth your whole life.
Right Behind You Creeps on the Ground
It’s right behind you,
And creeps on the ground,
It follows you home,
But does not make a sound.
Careful when you turn around.
What is it?
Your shadow.
Gets Rid of Bad Ones
Gets rid of bad ones,
Short and tall,
Tightens when used
One size fits all.
A noose.
