SCARECROW II
by D.J. YOON
Last fall I went to visit
The town where Dad once played
I walked along the rice fields
And saw a man of hay
Scarecrow scarecrow
Your head is full of air
You never think of anything
You only stand and stare
But then the scarecrow frowned
And shouted back at me
You’re a scarecrow too you know
As scarecrow as can be
You go to school all day
And then more school at night
You never run or laugh or play
That really isn't right
Your head is full of numbers
And grown-up thoughts and rules
But you forgot how fun it is
To play with friends at school
YOU ARE A SCARECROW
YOU ARE A SCARECROW
INDEED
YOU ARE A SCARECROW
허수아비
-윤동재
지난가을
아버지 고향 마을 가서
논두렁 밭두렁을 걷다가
허수아비를 만나
허수아비야 허수아비야
네 머리는 언제나 텅텅 비어 있고
넌 아무 것도 생각할 줄 모르지
하고 놀려 주었더니
허수아비가
버럭 화를 내며
네가 허수아비다
네가 허수아비다
날이면 날마다
학교 공부
학원 공부만 하고
동무와 놀 줄도 모르고
머릿속은
온갖 숫자와 알음알이로 꽉 채우고도
어느 것 한 가지
스스로 생각할 줄 모르는
네가 허수아비다
네가 허수아비다
참말로
네가 허수아비다
Appreciation Review 感想
Scarecrow II is a delightful and thought-provoking poem for children that blends humor, rhythm, and a meaningful message.
With simple language and vivid imagery, the poem tells the story of a child who teases a scarecrow —only to be cleverly reminded that he, too, has become stiff and lifeless in his own way.
The scarecrow’s surprising response encourages young readers to reflect on the importance of balance between learning and play.
Through its playful tone and catchy repetition, the poem delivers a gentle but powerful reminder that childhood should be filled with joy, imagination, and friendship.
It's a poem that both children and adults can enjoy — and learn from.
