HOME AGAIN
I "know some grown-up people Who say they're- fond of boys, * - But when you go to visit You mustn't make much noise. They have a splendid garden, - With beautiful flo.wers, but there ! - They don't like boys to pick them, Because they're all so rare. They have some chairs with cushions That look like velvet moss, But they aren't meant to sit on, Or lean against, or toss. They have some things in cab 'nets All fixed up spick and span, 1 For careful boys ' to play with (The boy who dares to, can !) - They're always kind and pleasant As ever they can be ; They've spent a whole long fortnight J/Ust entertaining me. I guess I like my fam'ly. The best of any one ; And when you've been a-visiting, The coming home is fun !
