Read and listen to these two poems with your partner and find out what are the things that the village child and the city child like.

The Village Child

My home is a house

Near a wood

I'd live in a street

If I could!

I do wish someone

Lived near.

There's no one to play with

At all.

The trees are so high

And so tall:

And I should be lonely

For hours,

Were it not for the birds

And the flowers.

The City Child

I live in a city

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.
