Wake Up

Wake up, dress, and greet the dawn! Meet dancing daisies on the lawn. Wake up and banish that sleepy yawn. Wake up and put your running shoes on. Race outside before the day is gone! Dress, run out, and hug the fawn. He wants to show you what he’s drawn. He used his brightest colored crayon. His drawing is such a phenomenon - a pot of gold and a leprechaun! Swirly twirl with your baton and join the marching echelon. Rouse the lazy swimming swan. Sway with her thither and yon and play until the sun is gone!
