My Favourite Things

My Favourite Things - Olive Gilbert

Raindrops on roses

And whiskers on kittens

Bright copper kettles

And warm woolen mittens

Brown paper packages

Tied up with strings

These are a few of my favorite things

Cream colored ponies

And crisp apple streudels

Doorbells and sleigh bells

And schnitzel with noodles

Wild geese that fly

With the moon on their wings

These are a few of

My favorite things

Girls in white dresses

With blue satin sashes

Snowflakes that stay on

My nose and eyelashes

Silver white winters

That melt into springs

These are a few of

My favorite things

When the dog bites

When the bee stings

When I'm feeling sad

I simply remember

My favorite things

And then I don't feel so bad
