Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings

These are a few of my favorite things

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudels

Doorbells and sleigh bells
And schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings

These are a few of my favorite things

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes

Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winter that melts into spring
These are a few of my favorite things


When the dog bites
When the bee stings

When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel... so bad
