Poem: City Rhythm
by Cynthia Porter
Grab an alley can, then pound—
tap, rap, clatter, clang a sound!
Grab a lid on trash, then drum—
snap, pat, rattle, bang and thrum!

Just take one stick, two sticks, quick—
beat some hot sweet city-slick.
Just take one stick, two sticks, slow—
hear that strong voice roll and flow.
Play a city rhythm song
and bring your dancing feet along.
Slam, bump, bam, thump! Catch a treat.
Make rhythm in the city street.
Join in! Jive, stamp, jump, clap, swing—
jam a city rhythm sing.

Come on! Clatter, clang a sound—
grab an alley can, then pound!
Come on! Rattle, bang and thrum—
beat a city rhythm drum!
