Rosy, my posy, You're sleepy and dozy, Sit upon grandmamma's knee-- Songs I will sing you Sweet sleep to bring you, Cuddle up cozy with me. I will sing ditties Of birds and of kitties, The song of the well to begin, How young Johnny Stout Pulled Pussy cat out When Johnny Green let her fall in; Of timid Miss Muffet Who fled from the tuffet,-- Of birdie that sings on the tree-- Of Jack and his Jill, And the mouse in the mill, And Bobby who sailed on the sea. Rosy, my posy, So weary and dozy-- Now she is coming, I see, All sleepy and dozy To cuddle up cozy And hush-a-by baby with me. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...EPISODE OF HANDS by HAROLD HART CRANE THE VINE by MUHAMMAD AL-MU'TAMID II VERSES, OCCASIONED BY AN AFFECTING INSTANCE OF SUDDEN DEATH by BERNARD BARTON THE WATERS OF LETHE by HARRY RANDOLPH BLYTHE HATE ME A LITTLE by WILL CHAMBERLAIN SAINT DOROTHEA, MARTYR by BROTHER CLEMENT NIHIL HUMANI ALIENUM by TITUS MUNSON COAN |
