A Little Girl’s Wants

WANT some thread,
Both green and red;
I want a needle long;
I want some strands
For ankle bands,
To give to Mrs. Wang.

Go to Sleep

THE tree leaves are murmuring hua-la-la,
Baby’s very sleepy and wants his mama;
Go to sleep, my baby, and then go to bed,
And any bogie-boo that comes,
I’ll knock him on the head.
