Raindrops Kew socks on roses














and whiskers on kittens














Bright copper kettles cotton stockings and














warm woolen
Katie with Mittens

















Brown paper packages tied up with strings




These are a few of my favorite things



Cream colored ponies and
crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and
schnitzel with noodles









Wild geese girls that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things.


Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Girls in bright tartans with smashing black leggings.

















Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes;
Silver-white winters that melt into springs;












These are a few of my favorite things.



When the dog bites,
When the bee stings,
When I'm feeling sad,

I simply remember my favorite things,
And then I don't feel so bad.

Happy New Years

May the dreams that you wish all come true.
