First Line: The sun is always in the sky
Last Line: ...I think its mother wakens it.
Subject(s): Morning
The sun is always in the sky
Whenever I get out of bed,
And I often wonder why
It's never late. -- My sister said
She didn't know who did the trick,
And that she didn't care a bit,
And I should eat my porridge quick.
...I think its mother wakens it.
