Brownie Smile Song
I've something in my pocket.
It belongs across my face,
And I keep it very close at hand
In a most convenient place.
I'm sure you couldnt guess it
If you guessed a long, long while,
So, I'll take it out and put it on -
It's a great big Brownie Smile!!

Today is *Poem in Your Pocket Day* and this is the one I'm carrying around and sharing.
I hope it brings back fond memories for you AND makes you smile.
Added later: Even though this is a children's song/poem, I find it applicable to me as an adult.
There's nothing like a smile.
Here are some additional beauty tips I'll be carrying around
....in my pocket!
I *DO* remember that poem/song! I was a Brownie for one year - never a Girl Scout - but it was a fun year!
ReplyDeleteYa know, Laura, I think this ditty can easily be altered, dropping the word *brownie* and inserting one's surname.
ReplyDeleteGreat lesson for young ones :)
I was a Brownie and a Girl Scout, in the days of my childhood before my mom and dad started having trouble and my mom stopped doing that stuff. I am so glad you mentioned Poem in a Pocket day...I will have to think on that!
