My little poet one spring day
Walked out along the country way;
His heart was light and merry.
He wisely said, "'Twere best I bring
Along with me, prepared to sing,
My rhyming dictionary."
My little poet's arm I took,
And asked if he'd within his book
A word to rhyme with notions;
He shook his little curly head,
And arched his brows, and laughed, and said:
"Oh yes, indeed! There's oceans!"
