Sweet Little Girl Nursery Rhyme

Missy, missy little girl With your blonde hair in a curl Daddy's baby, momma's dream Come let us catch a moonbeam A moonbeam for your night light A shooting star your wishing rights Daddy's baby, momma's dream Let us catch and hold a moonbeam To the rhythm of : Fishy, fishy in the brook Daddy caught him with a hook Momma cooked him in the pan And I ate him like a man A nursery rhyme that my mother taught me as a child...

This is one of my favourites by you. The picture it creates in my mind is beautiful, serene, something I wish would never end. You have done an outstanding job with this one.
