  The ARTICLES are, oh, so wee, These little words are A, AN, THE. The nouns are names of anything As BOOK or PLAYGROUND, BALL or RING. PRONOUNS are used for NOUNS instead— MY face, HER hand, YOUR feet, HIS head. All adjectives just tell the kind Of everything that we may find, As GOOD and BAD, and SOFT and SWEET, RUDE and NAUGHTY, WISE and NEAT. While of manner ADVERBS tell As SWEETLY, NEATLY, ILL or WELL. The PREPOSITIONS help each day IN our work and AT our play. When relationship is shown They must do the work alone. Good CONJUNCTIONS join together Man AND woman; plume OR feather. INTERJECTIONS will exclaim— But we cannot get along In conversation or in song Without the VERB, the subject's fate, Expressing action, being, state. |
