Monday's Child #51 The Pond

she waddled, waddled, waddled

and she fuddled, fuddled, fuddled

then said follow me

as she headed for the puddle

she pointed to the frog

she pointed to the turtle

she pointed to the puddle

that was growing by leaps and hurdles

the boy listened with his ears

the boy listened with his eyes

the boy listened to the duck

being so tall and wise

he said enjoy your new home

he said enjoy your summer swim

he said everyone enjoy

before winter comes again

so into the pond went the frog

into the pond went the turtle

into the pond went the ducks

as the boy did smile and did giggle

Oh, little fish

Illustration by: Carmen L. Browne 1917

Oh, little fish are you there
in the middle of the wide sea
that you fare?

Oh, little one will you grow
to be a great whale
I would like to know

Will you swim from shore
to far off land - and who will
be there to hold your hand?

Do you have a mom just like me
who will help you learn to swim
this big and mighty sea?

Return to the Highlands

It is time to return

to the Highlands Lass

It is time to make

our way home

We have been

to the Royal Wedding

A future King

who will take the throne

It is time to return

to the Highlands Lass

Kate was the

light of the town

Beauty that made

London shine

As all of Britain

watched on its grounds

It is time to return

to the Highlands Lass

my friend we have

shown our best

May Kate and Will

find joyous happiness

let us go Lass

now to the Highlands

and rest

The Royal Wedding

The Royal Wedding
it will

 soon be here, I must

iron my ribbon and curl up my hair

I must shine my waders

Yes, whiten my wings

I must be ready when

Winsminster Abbey church bells ring...
out the arrival of all

 the fine quests

 the Queen, Charles and Harry

all arriving with that

 Camille (family mess)

But not to worry

or not to pout

because there is love in the air

that London will shout

that will

light up all England

and all the Queensland's

when Prince William takes Kate

as his beautiful bride in

marriage and fair hand
