A Nice, Fine Neighborhood
Neighbors like to work together.
They watch out for everyone.
They pitch in to help each other
Until all the chores are done.
Neighbors like to play together.
They put out the welcome mat.
Children ride bikes on the sidewalk.
Grown-ups sit outside and chat.
When the busy day is over,
Happy neighbors feel so good.
They all smile at each other.
What a nice, fine neighborhood!
