Poems Teachers Ask For

The publisher has included poems that were frequently requested by readers of the Normal Instructor Primary Plans publication. For example, “How Many Seconds in a Minute?”  by Christina G. Rossetti:

How many seconds in a minute?                          How many weeks in a month?

Sixty, and no more in it.                                          Four, as the swift moon runn’th.

 

How many minutes in an hour?                             How many months in a year?

Sixty for sun and shower.                                        Twelve, the almanack makes clear.

 

How many hours in a day?                                      How many years in an age?

Twenty-four for work and play.                              One hundred, says the sage.

 

How many days in a week?                                     How many ages in time?

Seven both to hear and speak.                               No one knows the rhyme.
