Long Poems on Children’s Day in English

Ruskin Bond's What Can We Give Our Children?
What can we give our children?
Knowledge, yes, and honour too,
And strength of character
And the gift of laughter.
What gold do we give our children?
The gold of a sunny childhood,
Open spaces, a home that binds
Us to the common good…
These simple things
Are greater than the gold of kings.
Yevgeny Yevtushenko's Picture of Childhood
Elbowing our way, we run.
Someone is being beaten up in the market.
You wouldn’t want to miss it!
We pick up speed, racing to the uproar,
scooping up water in our felt boots
and forgetting to wipe our sniffles.
And stood stock-still. In our little hearts something tightened,
when we saw how the ring of sheepskin coats,
fur coats, hooded coats, was contracting,
how he stood up near the green vegetable stall
with his head pulled into his shoulders from the hail
of jabs, kicks, spitting, slaps in the face.
Paul. L. Kennedy’s Childhood Memories
I was happy when I was a lad.
It wasn't all good, but it wasn't half bad.
We played with sticks we played with stones;
we built ourselves dens that we called homes
We explored the woods, we climbed the trees
and we played with marbles on our knees.
Conkers in season we threaded with string.
If your opponent missed, your knuckles would sting.
We built trolleys with old pram wheels.
We were often too busy to go home for our meals.
We made catapults, bows and arrows and spears,
quite often resulting in painful tears.
We scrumped apples, plums and pears;
of getting caught, we had no cares
In fact, we were often caught, and our ears clipped
no smart replies - we never lipped.
During the long school summer holidays when the sun shone bright
we played outside from morning to night.
War games, tin can tommy, hide and seek,
Such fun we'd have, what havoc we'd wreak.
Raiding allotments, pinching what grew
We'd get a good hiding if our parents knew.
Round blazing open fires on logs we would sit.
In the pitch-black night our faces it lit.
We'd have singsongs and tell tales of ghosts,
of things we had done, exaggerated boasts
Now looking back, such a long time it seems
Sometimes I wonder was it all in my dreams
But then I remember all the things that I did
could only be done when I was a kid!
Zoe E. McCabe’s Summer days
The sun, it fades in the moonlight.
The stars, they fade in the daylight.
The cold breezes are strong in winter and spring,
And the warm, sunny days are what summer brings
The ice cream van's song plays a tune as the children play on the sand,
The joy on their little faces as their parents put money in their small, little hands
I remember the time when my dad put me on his shoulders as we surfed in the waves,
And all the times he would put on a song and we would have our own little rave
I remember the time when I made sand castles with my friends and the joy we all had.
I remember the summer days, and not a memory of those bright, sunny days was bad.
Terry Wheeler’s Home Away From Home
I remember when we were little kids
and would stay at grandma and grandpa's house all night.
We would get scolded when we talked in bed
until once again the room would grow quiet.
Just when we thought we were out of trouble
one of us would think of something funny to say.
We could hear footsteps coming down the hall.
That meant grandpa was on his way.
Now grandma and grandpa could be quite stern
but never could they be mean
Mostly it was a lot of love that came
from them; that is what we had seen
Finally, we would settle down for the night, and before we knew it
it was the next day.
We weren't so anxious to get up
because we had talked the night away.
Grandma would yell, you kids get up,
Get out of bed it's time for you to eat.
We could already smell the biscuits,
bacon and eggs, we knew we were in for quite a treat.
We were right because when we saw the
table set with all the goodies galore,
it only made us want to stay at grandma
and grandpa's house more and more and more.
Maya Angelou’s Life Doesn’t Frighten Me
Shadows on the wall
Noises down the hall
Life doesn't frighten me at all
Bad dogs barking loud
Big ghosts in a cloud
Life doesn't frighten me at all
Mean old Mother Goose
Lions on the loose
They don't frighten me at all
Dragons breathing flame
On my counterpane
That doesn't frighten me at all.
I go boo
Make them shoo
I make fun
Way they run
I won't cry
So they fly
I just smile
They go wild
Life doesn't frighten me at all.
Tough guys fight
All alone at night
Life doesn't frighten me at all.
Panthers in the park
Strangers in the dark
No, they don't frighten me at all.
That new classroom where
Boys all pull my hair
(Kissy little girls
With their hair in curls)
They don't frighten me at all.
Don't show me frogs and snakes
And listen for my scream,
If I'm afraid at all
It's only in my dreams.
I've got a magic charm
That I keep up my sleeve
I can walk the ocean floor
And never have to breathe.
Life doesn't frighten me at all
Not at all
Not at all.
Life doesn't frighten me at all.
