SAFE AND SOUND (A LITTLE ACTION SONG) by ANNETTE WYNNE

First Line: SAFE AND SOUND IN THE GROUND
Last Line: While Mr. Rough Wind rides around
Subject(s): PLANTS; SEEDS; WINTER; SPRING;

SAFE and sound in the ground.
Little seeds are lying so ''"
Just like this ''" all in a row,
But when April dances round ''"
Like this ''" with singing sound,
And there's not a trace of snow
Up they'll jump before we know ''"
Like this ''" and start to gi'ow.

All day long the small plants try
This way ''" to reach the sky;
Soon little flowers peep all about.
And then when school at last is out
The children gather in the sun
And pick the flowers one by one''"
So, ''" and then comes snow;
Once again all in a row
Little seeds lie underground,
While Mr. Rough Wind rides around.
