Where the Sidewalk Ends

Where the sidewalk ends.

 

Happy Saturday dear friends. It’s poetry Saturday and Here is one of my favorites. Where the Sidewalk ends by Shell Silverstein.

 

Where the Sidewalk Ends

By Shell Silverstein.

 

Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein

There is a place where the sidewalk ends

And before the street begins,

And there the grass grows soft and white,

And there the sun burns crimson bright,

And there the moon-bird rests from his flight

To cool in the peppermint wind.

 

Let us leave this place where the smoke blows black

And the dark street winds and bends.

Past the pits where the asphalt flowers grow

We shall walk with a walk that is measured and slow,

And watch where the chalk-white arrows go

To the place where the sidewalk ends.

 

Yes we’ll walk with a walk that is measured and slow,

And we’ll go where the chalk-white arrows go,

For the children, they mark, and the children, they know

The place where the sidewalk ends.

Psalm 18:36

You have made a wide path for my feet

   to keep them from slipping.

 

TTFN and God Bless and Keep you.
