He tell me why the doves cry. He tell me the prince has die. Rest in peace. Author: Shel Silverstein. I live Shel Silverstein and I am not a kid. I live reading him to my kids. I was shocked to find some kioks had one of his books banned in Milwaukee. Anyway, he is awesome and gets people to think and his poems are tongue candy or music of silly, fun imagination..
Oh my god! My favorite of all time. Wonderful man with an amazing mind! I feel like the world is missing a big piece now that he isn't writing anymore. Was just telling my husband that i wanted to get all his books so my children can grow up reading the same books I did.
My favorite was invention I've done it I've done it guess what I've done I've invented a lightbulb that plugs into the sun the sun is bright enough The bulb strong enough only one thing wrong the cord ani't long enough I also like snowball I made myself a snowball as perfect as could be I thought I keep it as a pet and let it sleep with me I made it some pajamas and a pillow for its head and last night it ran away but first it wet the bed.
I really love reading poems. It feel so warm and sometimes I've had goosebumps. Now, I am trying to find some good short Christmas poems coz I kinda like the holiday feel on them. A great introduction to Shel Silverstein and a wonderful selection of his writings. Am really sad that i discovered this man later on in my life, but he forever lives on to those who've read his work and am really happy to be among them all I like "I'm a Kid" and it's missing from the list..
Did the reviewers err? Why try to make me like you? Why are you hurt when I don't cuddle? Why do you sigh when I splash through a puddle? Why do you scream when I do what I did? My kids get so mad at me if we skip poems before bed! Shel's are the best! Our favorite is "Ridiculous Rose" but, love them all. That's my fave. I read snowball because it is funny. The speaker was a boy or girl who made the snowball.
He loves snowballs. I think it means eventually everything will go or leave or die. I love his poems My teacher has us doing an assignment on authors, he sounded interesting so I chose him, I am so glad I did! I wish I would have knew about him earlier. I have read his book The Giving Tree. You can say if it was a lot, a little.

We create special memories with our loved ones. We form bonds that take our breath away. This poem is wonderful because Silverstein acknowledges that humans come in a very large variety pack. Despite all this, at the end of the day a lot of these differences exist only within our minds.
If only we could get this information to Congress. Friendships will change over time. This poem advises us not to waste our childhoods.
You will never get to be the age you are again, so treasure every moment of life. This poem is what I like to call an emotional rollercoaster. Silverstein provokes wondering if there is ever such a thing as a happy ending. Both books and poems from Shel Silverstein contain valuable life lessons that can help us live better lives.
In this poem, Silverstein reminds us to stay true to ourselves. Sometimes, it seems like life is always demanding more of us: work more, study harder and earn more money. Read These Books. It also reminds us that self-acceptance is a prerequisite to acceptance by others.
Sharing our authentic selves with others is the only way to have real relationships with them. Friendship is a two-way street, and this Shel Silverstein poem reminds us of that.
