IN THE SHOPPING BAG
When I went out shopping
I bought a fine fish,
Some flowers for my Mother,
A tart upon a dish;
A whistle for my brother;
A book for Uncle Joe
Two towels for Aunt Mary;
Red ribbon for a bow;
I went into a toy-shop
To buy a rubber ball
To give to sister Carol
To bounce against the wall.
TWO FROGS
Two frogs how strange so ever it seems,
One fell into a bowl of cream.
One was an optimist by nature,
A pessimist the other creature
At first both straggled round and round,
Hoping an outlet would be found
One quickly gave up more, got tired,
Sank in the cream and then expired
The other bravely struggled on,
And soon the victory was won.
For at the end of all his splutter
He sat upon a pat of butter.
MY WISH
I want to live and not to die!
I want to laugh and not to cry !
I want to feel the summer sun.
I want to sing when life is fun.
I want to fly into the blue.
I want to swim as fishes do.
I want to stretch out my friendly hands
To all the young of other lands.
I want to laugh, and not to cry!
I want to live, and not to die!
AFTER THE PARTY
Jonathan Blake ate too much cake.
He isn’t himself today;
He’s tucked up in bed
With a feverish head,
And he doesn’t much care to play.
Jonathan Blake ate too much cake
And three kinds of ice-cream too
From the latest reports
He’s quite out of sorts,
I’m sure his reports are true.
