Moving Me

By Melissa D. Stubbs

Hopping, skipping, one, two, three—

Run in circles ’round the tree.

Climb the stairs and touch the ground.

Reach up high. Don’t make a sound.

Make a touchdown. Tag your base.

Shoot the basket. Run a race.

Moving keeps my body strong.

I like moving all day long.
