Marchette Chute Poems

His nose is short and scrubby;
His ears hang rather low;
And he always brings the stick back
No matter how far you throw,

I'm very good at skiing.
I have a kind of knack
For I can do it frontways
And also on my back.

Green and cool
The mermaids keep
A swimming school.

My goodness, my goodness,
It's Christmas again.
The bells are all ringing.

I wanted a bat and a ball,
I wanted some skates and a bicycle,
But, I didn't want mittens at all.

Or down in the roots of tree;
