Poem to learn: Nicanor, the woodpecker
The woodpecker
hard at work,
itches and itches the wood
he wants to be a builder.
Build sailboats,
build them motor,
and with his name painted
calls himself "Nicanor".
Build very big houses,
nice little houses,
and carving with your pick,
make wooden furniture.
A large porch, some benches,
some chairs and some tables,
the doors and windows, armar the cupboards and stairs.
Pine, juniper, cherry,
teak, oak, walnut,
all the luxurious furniture
in the houses will look.
They already call him from China,
from Japan and New York,
his name has become famous
"Carpintero Nicanor",
Well his boats, the sailboats
and the motor boats,
have already turned around to the world
with his name, Nicanor.
