Answer 1

Answer:

The Town Child

by Irene Thompson

I live in the town  

In a street;  

It is crowded with traffic  

And feet;  

There are buses and motors  

And trams;  

I wish there were meadows  

And lambs.  

The houses all wait  

In a row,  

There is smoke everywhere  

That I go.  

I don't like the noises  

I hear —  

I wish there were woods  

Very near.  

There is only one thing  

That I love,  

And that is the sky  

Far above,  

There is plenty of room  

In the blue  

For castles of clouds  

And me, too!

the climate and the playing of children and the beauty of envirment
