Monday's Child #14: Conversation

Image via Monday's Child

"How many wools did mother ask to wind?"
"A one or two and the third one kept behind."
"Isn't red so cute that might look good on us?
a new pullover even Liza might get jealous"
"The kids are playing and calling us to leave"
"No, No! I shall finish up winding so that mother can weave.
I am so eager to wear my new,
Cannot even wait for a time so few.
Let us wind it fast before mother comes,
so that we can surprise her with our work done."
