Part 2 — MERRY SUNSHINE

"Good morning, Merry Sunshine, How did you wake so soon? You've scared the little stars away, And shined away the moon. I saw you go to sleep last night Before I ceased my playing; How did you get 'way over there? And where have you been staying?" "I never go to sleep, dear child, I just go round to see My little children of the east Who rise and watch for me. I waken all the birds and bees And flowers on my way, And now come back to see the child Who stayed out late to play." —Anonymous.
