I Grew Today
I grew today; I think I grew an inch.
My secret is, I eat my spinach greens.
I season them with salt, but just a pinch,
And then sometimes I also eat my beans.
I grew today; I think I grew a foot.
I drink my milk to make my bones grow long.
My rule has always been, quite simply put:
Drink milk, drink milk, drink milk, it’s never wrong!
I grew today; I think I grew a yard,
I think because the exercise I do.
I swim. I bike. I run. I’m training hard.
I wonder one day what I’ll grow into.
I grew today; I think I grew mile:
That is, of course, if you can count my smile.
