Poem - 1
Up into the cherry tree
Who should climb but little me?
I held the trunk with both my hands
And looked abroad in foreign lands.
I saw the next-door garden lie,
Adorned with flowers, before my eye,
And many pleasant places more
That I had never seen before.
I saw the dimpling river pass
And be the sky's blue looking-glass;
The dusty roads go up and down
With people tramping in to town.
If I could find a higher tree
Farther and farther I should see,
To where the grown-up river slips
Into the sea among the ships,
To where the roads on either hand
Lead onward into fairyland,
Where all the children dine at five,
And all the playthings come alive.
Q. The expression in the second line 'little me' means
Who should climb but little me?
I held the trunk with both my hands

I saw the next-door garden lie,
Adorned with flowers, before my eye,
And many pleasant places more
That I had never seen before.

And be the sky's blue looking-glass;

With people tramping in to town.

Into the sea among the ships,
To where the roads on either hand
Lead onward into fairyland,
Where all the children dine at five,
And all the playthings come alive.

I build walls:
Walls that protect,
Walls that shield,
Walls that say I shall not yield
Or reveal
Who I am or how I feel.
I build walls:
Walls that hide,
Walls that cover what's inside,
Walls that stare or smile or look away,
Silent lies,
Walls that even block my eyes
From the tears, I might have cried.
I build walls:
Walls that never let me
Truly touch
Those I love so very much
Walls that need to fall!
Walls meant to be fortresses
Are prisons after all.
