Happy Marcus Monday!

For your literary pleasure...

Stomp your feet! Clap your hands! Everybody ready for a barnyard dance!
Bow to the horse.
Bow to the cow.
Twirl with the pig if you know how.
Bounce with the bunny.
Strut with the duck.
Spin with the chicken now - CLUCK CLUCK CLUCK!
With a BAA and a MOO and a COCKADOODLEDOO
everybody promenade two by two!
Prance with the horses,
skitter with the mice.
Swing with your partner once or twice.
Stand with the donkey.
Slide with the sheep.
Scramble with the little chicks - 
CHEEP CHEEP CHEEP!
With a NEIGH and a MOO
and a COCKADOODLEDOO
another little promenade 
two by two!
Trot with the turkey.
Leap with the frog.
Take another spin with the barnyard dog.
Turn with the cow in a patch of clover.
All take a bow,
and the dance is over.
With an OINK and a MOO and a 
QUACK QUACK QUACK,
the dance is done,
but we'll be back!
~Barnyard Dance! Sandra Boynton

Happy Monday!
