At any rate, my friend Barbara gave me a box full of weaving yarn that her neighbor had given her. And Oscar decided to investigate.
I think he liked what he saw! Also, the outfit he's wearing says "Little Space Monkey". I like it, but who decided that was what a baby outfit needed? Baby clothes often baffle me. Why do they all have pockets? Have you ever seen a baby use its pockets? What have you got in your pocket?
A LITTLE BOYS POCKET
ReplyDeleteDo you know what's in my pottet?
Such a lot of treasures in it
Listen now while I bedinit.
Such a lot of sings it holds
And everysing dats in my pottet
And when and where and how I dot it!
First of all here's in my pottet
A beauty shell I pit'd it up
and here's the handle of a tup
That someone has braked at tea
The shell's a hole in it you see.
Nobody knows dat I've dot it.
I teep it safe in my pottet.
And here's my pennies one,two,free
That Aunt Mary Dave to me.
To-morrow I will buy a spade
When I'm out walking with the maid
I tan't put dat in my pottet
But I can use it when I've dot it.
Here's some more sings in my pottet
Here's my bead and here's my string
And once I hand an iron ring
But through a hole it lost one day
And this is what I always say
A hole's the worst sing in a pottet
Be sure and mend it when you've dot it.
