Poetry is an integral part of any language arts program. Learning the cadence of words, rhyming, and storytelling. Reading poetry aloud is an effective way for children to learn and enjoy. Our poetry entries also make good starting points for copywork in each section of the lesson modules.
The Oak
Alfred Tennyson
Live thy Life,
Young and old,
Like yon oak,
Bright in spring,
Living gold;
Summer-rich
Then; and then
Autumn-changed,
Soberer-hued
Gold again.
All his leaves
Fallen at length,
Look, he stands,
Trunk and bough,
Naked strength.
