A BUNCH OF ROSES by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: THE ROSY MOUTH AND ROSY TOE
Last Line: TO KISS AND PLAY TOGETHER.
Subject(s): BABIES; FLOWERS; ROSES; INFANTS;

THE rosy mouth and rosy toe
Of little baby brother,
Until about a month ago
Had never met each other;
But nowadays the neighbors sweet,
In every sort of weather,
Half way with rosy fingers meet,
To kiss and play together.
