    Shel Silverstein
    “There's a Polar Bear
    In our Frigidaire--
    He likes it 'cause it's cold in there.
    With his seat in the meat
    And his face in the fish
    And his big hairy paws
    In the buttery dish,
    He's nibbling the noodles,
    And munching the rice,
    He's slurping the soda,
    He's licking the ice.
    And he lets out a roar
    If you open the door.
    And it gives me a scare
    To know he's in there--
    That Polary Bear
    In our Fridgitydaire.”
    Shel Silverstein, A Light in the Attic

    “Draw a crazy picture,
    Write a nutty poem,
    Sing a mumble-gumble song,

    Put something silly in the world
    That ain't been there before.”

    “The Voice

    There is a voice inside of you
    That whispers all day long,
    "I feel this is right for me,
    I know that this is wrong."
    No teacher, preacher, parent, friend
    Or wise man can decide
    What's right for you--just listen to
    The voice that speaks inside.”
    Shel Silverstein

    “I will not play at tug o' war.
    I'd rather play at hug o' war,
    Where everyone hugs
    Instead of tugs,
    Where everyone giggles
    And rolls on the rug,
    Where everyone kisses,
    And everyone grins,
    And everyone cuddles,
    And everyone wins.”
    Shel Silverstein, Where the Sidewalk Ends

    Graceful and Wise
    Tell me I'm perfect--
    But tell me the TRUTH.”

    “No Difference

    Small as a peanut,
    Big as a giant,
    We're all the same size
    When we turn off the light.

    Rich as a sultan,
    Poor as a mite,
    We're all worth the same
    When we turn off the light.

    Red, black or orange,
    Yellow or white,
    We all look the same
    When we turn off the light.

    So maybe the way,
    To make everything right
    Is for god to just reach out
    And turn off the light!”
    Shel Silverstein

    “FROZEN DREAM

    I'll take the dream I had last night
    And put it in my freezer,
    So someday long and far away
    When I'm an old grey geezer,
    I'll take it out and thaw it out,
    This lovely dream I've frozen,
    And boil it up and sit me down
    A dip my old cold toes in.”
