by Lois Lenski

Sing a song of people
Walking fast or slow;
People in the city
Up and down they go.
5 People on the sidewalk,
People on the bus;
People passing, passing,
In back and front of us.
People on the subway
10 Underneath the ground.
People riding taxis
Round and round and round.
People with their hats on,
Going in the doors;
15 People with umbrellas
When it rains and pours.
|
People in tall buildings
And in stores below;
Riding elevators
20 Up and down they go.
People walking singly,
People in a crowd;
People saying nothing,
People talking loud.
25 People laughing, smiling,
Grumpy people too;
People who just hurry
And never look at you!
Sing a song of people
30 Who like to come and go;
Sing of city people
You see but never ________!
