Poem
(The audience for this is small children who have seen the movie.) Mary Poppins Makes a Visit By Elton Camp When Mary decides she wants a job Other applicants of a chance will rob She causes a strong wind to blow Riding umbrellas, off they do go When competitors are no longer around From the sky she comes floating down In order to make sure that she gets hired Convinces Banks she is what’s desired Upstairs to the nursery she does go Gives the children a magic show Then of her own self, she does say, “Practically perfect in every way.” When she takes them on the street An old friend, Burt, they do meet His drawings made of chalk They admire on the sidewalk By her power, they pop inside There they find horses to ride In the fantasy world can stay no more Once a heavy rain does start to pour The two wet children then are told Take this medicine to avoid a cold When they began to frown Found a way to get it down To swallow it they couldn’t well refuse Because of the song Mary did choose Both kids thought it very neat When the stuff tasted sweet Mary then had a very strong feeling They’d like a tea party on the ceiling When happy, they floated up in the air Stayed there as long as they had no care. Of Mary’s antics Mr. Banks got tired Decided it was time she should be fired Getting him to take them to work was a trick With serious consequences that made him sick Though the tuppence was only a tiny amount Banker wanted Michael’s money in an account Of that the boy saw no need The birds he wanted to feed When his money he did demand Other customers didn’t understand They didn’t think it was in fun And on the bank began a run That very night, Mr. Banks was called back Board of Directors would give him the axe But into his mind did spring What was the important thing Mary had shown him how to enjoy Spending time with his girl and boy Mean old banker laughed until he died But the Directors’ Board took it in stride “Mr. Banks, we have a fine notion Take you back with a promotion.” And Mary, her job all done, From the house she did run.
