Yesterday I took my saw And some bits of wood, And I made a little house Nicely as I could. I put on a mossy-green Little pointed roof, And I cut a tiny door That is pussy-proof. For I hope some little wrens To our yard will come And will choose my little house For their little home. I shall hang it in the boughs Of the apple-tree, And I'm sure as rent for it They will sing to me! |
