FIVE SISTERS, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Five little sisters walking in a row
Last Line: A bright yellow flower and a new red pot.
Subject(s): Girls


Five little sisters walking in a row;
Now, isn't that the best way for little girls to go?
Each had a round hat, each had a muff,
And each had a new pelisse of soft green stuff.
Five little marigolds standing in a row;
Now, isn't that the best way for marigolds to grow?
Each with a green stalk, and all the five had got
A bright yellow flower and a new red pot.
