Sing a Song of People

by Lois Lenski

Sing a song of people walking fast or slow;

People in the city, up and down they go.

People on the sidewalk, people on the bus;

People passing, passing, in back and front of us.

People on the subway underneath the ground;

People riding taxis round and round and round.

People with their hats on, going in the doors;

People with umbrellas when it rains and pours.

People in tall buildings and in stores below;

Riding elevators up and down they go.

People walking single, people in a crowd;

People saying nothing, people talking loud.

People laughing, smiling, grumpy people too;

People who just hurry and never look at you!

Sing a song of people who like to come and go;

Sing of city people you see but never know!
