My Dream

Tra la lala la la
Trim trim trim
Last night I had
A very sweet dream.

For what you buy
All is free
A crayon, a candy,
Or a cookie it may be.

So don't worry, don't worry
If you have no money
Tra la lala la la
Trim trim trim.

 

 

Juggling

The little juggler
Came in our road
He has laughter
And a bag full of load
 
Threw he a ball
Ups and down
Rise they and fall
The sun and the moon.
 
Stretched he a rope
And a gesture did he make
Vanished everyone's hope
When the rope became a snake.

Life's Glory

I like the rainbow
For it has no arrow
I like the joy
That knows no sorrow
 
I like the meadow
That has no shadow
I like the light
That is full of halo
 
I like the fruits mellow
Dipped in orange and yellow
Life is deep
Nothing so shallow.
