MONDAY'S CHILD #39 |
The elves and imps and faeries
Gathered up on yonder hill
Right beneath the old oak tree
With hungry tummies to fill
They lay the cloth upon the ground
And present the birthday cake
Come on everybody - gather 'round
They sing a song and eat some cake
then....
Surprise!! Surprise!! It's Squirrelly Sam
Welcome to the birthday picnic!
They look forward to his magic hands
They're delighted to see his tricks
A slight of hand with magic cards
A mysterious blue hankerchief
Behind an ear a shiny gold star
These are delightful magic tricks!
Applauds and cheers from everyone
Squirrelly Sam takes a bow
"It looks like you had a lot of fun
I'm glad you enjoyed the show!"
Pretty soon the day was done
The tummies were full of cake
Time to make their way back home
Before Mamma's call and the evening wakes
