Two elves plan a theft of a rare flower scent. One escapes, climbs the stalk, and holds the scent in his heart before sliding down. The other elf attempts sharing it but finds the scent cannot be transferred. The poem explores scent theft as a metaphor of inner possession.
Bud, Tommy, and Karl build a blue and yellow kite with string and paste pots. The kite soars then slips from Bud’s grip and is lost. Bud and Karl search the block while their mother visits a hospital, where a Japanese boy on the roof finds the kite drifting down from heaven as a nurse translates.
The piece outlines games like Corner Ball with triangle or square boundaries based on players, Two Deep with runners and chasers, Baste where animals guard dens, The Huntsman with rabbits, and a verse about flowers and a garden. It reads as coach or parent guidance for schoolyard play and imaginative playtime activities.
A playful dialogue between Karl and Aunt Bessie uses clock imagery to describe daily life. The exchange mentions two hands and a clean face, then counts days open or closed in a week. The piece contrasts apparent similarities with a lingering difference in routine.
