SNEEZING
If you sneeze on Monday, you sneeze for danger;
Sneeze on a Tuesday, kiss a stranger;
Sneeze on a Wednesday, sneeze for a letter;
Sneeze on a Thursday, something better.
Sneeze on a Friday, sneeze for sorrow;
Sneeze on a Saturday, joy to-morrow.
PUSSY-CAT BY THE FIRE
Pussy-cat sits by the fire;
How can she be fair?
In walks the little dog;
Says: “Pussy, are
you there?
How do you do, Mistress Pussy?
Mistress Pussy, how d’ye
do?”
“I thank you kindly, little dog,
I fare as well as you!”
WHEN THE SNOW IS ON THE GROUND
The little robin grieves
When the snow is on the ground,
For the trees have no leaves,
And no berries can be found.
The air is cold, the worms are hid;
For robin here what can be
done?
Let’s strow around some crumbs of bread,
And then he’ll live
till snow is gone.
