Childrens Tiff

Two little kids went out to play

In their backyard one summer day.

They gazed at cotton candy sky,

And argued as the clouds sailed by.

"There goes a fluffy sheep!" Tim cried,

As Kimmy scrutinized the sky.

"I do not see a sheep," she said.

"I see a flock of birds, instead."

"How lovely are the birds!" said he.

"Look there’s a swarm of bumble bees,

And there goes a train, a foot long!"

"Oh no brother, you are so wrong."

"Pesky Kimmy, don’t be a pain,

’Cos you are driving me insane.

Go away and leave me alone

To just imagine on my own!"

"Okay then, I’ll leave you alone,

But when you see a shape unknown,

Do not go screaming out to me,

’Cos I won’t tell you what I see."

"Leave me alone and let me be,

I don’t need you to play with me!"

Feeling lonely, she blurted out,

"If you need me just give a shout!"

Notefluffy：披著絨毛的scrutinized：細(xì)察flock：一群insane：極愚蠢的

blurted：未加思索地沖口而出

夏日的一天，兩個小孩兒在他們的后院里玩耍。

他們盯著棉花糖一般的天空，

因為流云爭吵著。

“綿羊過來了!”提姆喊道，

吉米仔細(xì)觀察著天空。

“我沒看見綿羊，”她說。

“但是，我看見了一群鳥。”

“多可愛的鳥啊!”他說。

“看，那有一群蜜蜂，

那還有一列火車，有一英尺長!”

“不，哥哥，你錯了。”

“討厭的吉米，你都快讓我瘋掉了。

走開，讓我一個人呆著。

我要發(fā)揮我自己的想象!”

“那好吧，我會讓你一個人呆著的。

但是當(dāng)你看到你不認(rèn)識的形狀時，

別來沖我喊叫，

因為我不會告訴你我看到了什么。”

“走開，讓我一個人呆會兒，

我不需要你和我玩!”

感到寂寞，她不假思索喊道，

“如果你需要我，就喊一聲。”
