People (Monday Poem)

 by Charlotte Zolotow


Some people talk and talk
and never say a thing.
Some people look at you
and birds begin to sing.

Some people laugh and laugh
and yet you want to cry.
Some people touch your hand
and music fills the sky.


from Poetry by Heart: A Child's Book of Poems to Remember
compiled by Liz Attenborough, Scholastic, 2001
