I'M A STORYTELLER!

I'm a storyteller and a poet too!

In the Story Village, I share them with you.

We don't go to a movie, or watch a TV screen,

I'm all up in our head if ya know what I mean

Pictures in my stories....are the ones you create.

Listen up! imagine!... let's collaborate!

lend me your ears....hear what I say.

As stories come alive....in an awesome way.

Some of the stories are older than old—

Aunti Oni's spinning on what others have told.

Some are brand new..... fresh from my head,

Some I thought, or I heard, or I read.

Stories & poems from storytelling friends too!

Gave me permission to share them with you.

Movin' & groovin' to what we love so dear

I hope you enjoy Story Village in your ear

Stories from my heart — to all over the place

Aunti Oni loves to put a smile on your face

From beginning to end I give you stories to share

On how to treat others and how to play fair. 

Ya know Story Village took you somewhere

In the world wide web and here and there

So if ya frontin' on Aunti...like you don't care

write your own stories,,,,if you dare.

Story Village with Aunti Oni...is the podcast for you

Cuz only cool people can do what we do

Yes, I’m a storyteller and a poet fa true

And guess what...you can be one too!

Cause it ain't nothing to it but to do it

And it ain't hard to do it, 'cause I'm use to it!

Do owls give a hoot? Or are they good listeners? Brown Owl is beautiful because he's so smart and it's not about how he looks. He's smart because he's a good listener, just like you.

What can you do if a bully troubles you? Don't keep quiet, tell someone and when you do you'll be able to move forward in the positive. You have a right to enjoy the rest of your day and you can tell the bully to do the same. I wrote this poem for you and my friends in the Story Village at Healing With Horses Park on the island of Tobago. I hope you enjoy reading along and will dance and sing with me. Listen & sing along!

IT'S A GREAT DAY

Enjoy the rest of your day 

Tell troubles to go away

Don't care what nobody says

It's a great day to have a great day (Repeat 5X)

Cause troubles may come ....ya don't know when, 

When ya send them away...they come back again

If trouble is a bully, who calls you names, 

Don’t bully back and cause more pain

Bullies are sad people, that is true 

Don't mind them for what they do

They are hurting inside, not happy like you

and hurt people, hurt people too

Chorus:

Enjoy the rest of your day

Tell ya troubles to go away

Don't care what nobody says

It's a great day to have a great day

So laugh and smile...it will soon end.

And you will find a better friend.

One who respects and cares about you

And you gonna have big fun with them too

So what do you do? What do you say?

To make troubles go away

So what do you do? What do you say?

To make ya troubles go away 

(repeat chorus)
