Tambourine Girl

I went on a hike
Brought my tambourine
Got some stares
But nobody was mean
I shook it as I ran
It jingled and jangled
Almost tripped on a root
And could have ended up all mangled
I shook it on cliffs
and by waterfalls too
I shook it in pictures
I should bring it to the zoo!
It wouldn't scare the elephants
I promise. I swear.
I shake the tambourine to spread music
All through the air
Shaking a tambourine on a mountain
Gives me such power and such pride
I let my friends shake it
And watched their smiles spread wide
We continued on our hike
Sprinted through the crunchy leaves
Running with my tambourine
Was more fun than I could have ever believed
My sister called out behind me,
As I sprinted with all of my might
"Hey Tambourine Girl,
You are quite a sight."
I like my tambourine
and shaking it throughout the day
Now I'm done with this poem
It's time for me to go play.
