Who Is She - Children's Poem - Julie M. Lippmann
(Read the following riddle to the children and let them guess the answer:) RIDDLE When she's young she's tall and slender, Any faint young breeze could bend her. She grows stout as she grows old, And her hair is sunny gold. As the days pass out of sight, Lo! her hair turns snowy white. Then the children in their play Wish--and blow her quite away. Guess her name.--You're "tired trying;"? Why, her name is--Dandelion.
