Dance of the Months.

The New Year comes in with shout and
laughter,
And see. twelve months are following after;
First, January all in white
And February short and bright:
See breezy March 90 tearing round;
But fearful April makes no sound
May brings a pole with flowers crowned,
And June strews roses on the ground
A pop, a bang, July comes in;
Says August what a dreadful dini''
September brings her golden sheaves;
October waves her pretty leaves;
While pale November waits to see
December bring the Christmas tree
They join their hands to make a ring,
And they dance they merrily sing,
Twelve months we are. you see us here:
We make the circle of the year:
We dance and sing and children hear:
We wish you all a glad New Year"
