O, Reading, how we love thee
Let us count the ways:
Harry Potter and Bella Swan
Our list could just go on and on
You bring us joy, you make us cry
You help us make the time go by...
Wait a minute...our mistake!
No Treading, on this "grass" of mine
Not yet green, but very fine
It begins to grow from just a seed
If only those darn dogs could read!!!
We often find humor in the poor translations, misprints and peeling letters on English words. This sign leads from a dirt path to a public circle where people meet to exercise (dance, martial arts, hacky sack), play games or chat. I (Marcie) looked at the sign for a good 10 seconds, trying to comprehend that there was No Reading allowed in the circle and then figured it out by reading the other side. It has become an inside joke in our family with the kids each making up little poems about reading as we pass.
Loved this one, and thinking about all the poems your creative kids are coming up with!
