CRIPPLE
ONCE when I saw a cripple
Gasping slowly his last days with the white plague,
Looking from hollow eyes, calling for air,
Desperately gesturing with wasted hands
In the dark and dust of a house down in a slum,
I said to myself
I would rather have been a tall sunflower
Living in a country garden
Lifting a golden-brown face to the summer,
Rain-washed and dew-misted,
Mixed with the poppies and ranking hollyhocks,
And wonderingly watching night after night
The clear silent processionals of stars.
Gasping slowly his last days with the white plague,
Looking from hollow eyes, calling for air,
Desperately gesturing with wasted hands
In the dark and dust of a house down in a slum,
I said to myself
I would rather have been a tall sunflower
Living in a country garden
Lifting a golden-brown face to the summer,
Rain-washed and dew-misted,
Mixed with the poppies and ranking hollyhocks,
And wonderingly watching night after night
The clear silent processionals of stars.

teaching resources will help students understand more about Van Gogh, his works and the world of art.
Sunflower Measuring and Counting
Overview: Students will practice measuring and counting - improving math skills and art appreciation through the use of Van Gogh's Sunflowers and sunflower seeds.
Student Level: 1st - 2nd Grade
Time Frame: 1 hour
Objectives:
- Students will communicate what they have learned about sunflowers
- Students will improve their measuring and counting skills
- Students will work cooperatively in groups
Materials:
- Posters, prints, or overheads of Van Gogh's Sunflowers
- Silk or real sunflowers with stalks
- Sunflower seeds
- Glue
- Crayons
- Rulers
- Construction Paper
Procedures:
- Begin the activity by showing a poster or print of Van Gogh's Sunflowers. Ask students to count items in the painting. For example, how many sunflowers are in the painting, how many different colors do you see?
- Ask students to guess what type of flower is in the painting. Then ask students to guess how tall is a sunflower. After students make guesses assign students to small groups of 2 to 3 students.
- Each group will receive one sunflower. In small groups, students will use rulers to measure how tall their sunflower is in inches.
- Next students will write how tall the sunflower is in inches at the top of his/her piece of paper underneath his/her name.
- Once each group's measurements have been approved each group will be given a bowl of sunflower seeds. Each student will count out the number of sunflower seeds for the number of inches counted. For example if the sunflower was 40 inches each student would count out 40 seeds.
- Each student will then take his counted seeds and glue them to his paper and create his own sunflower artwork with the seeds and crayons.

Don McLean - Vincent ( Starry, Starry Night) With Lyrics
Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and grey
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colors on the snowy linen land
Paint your palette blue and grey
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colors on the snowy linen land
Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
And how…
What you tried to say to me
And how…
For they could not love you
But still your love was true
And when no hope was left in sight
On that starry, starry night
You took your life, as lovers often do
But I could have told you, Vincent
This world was never meant for one
As beautiful as you
But still your love was true
And when no hope was left in sight
On that starry, starry night
You took your life, as lovers often do
But I could have told you, Vincent
This world was never meant for one
As beautiful as you
Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frameless heads on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in the ragged clothes
The silver thorn, a bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frameless heads on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in the ragged clothes
The silver thorn, a bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
Now I think I know
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they're not listening still
Perhaps they never will
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they're not listening still
Perhaps they never will
