The girls went out to play todayWe had the buffet and cafe au lait
Delight was indulged - it's hard to convey
A veritable purvey for the day
"Why?" you may say, "Did you go out to play?"
Alas the sad day - one is going away!
Dismay! Dismay! Curdles and whey!
Has little Miss Muffet
And her dear little tuffet
Been frightened away...and to stay?
Not frightened, I say
(Though there may be dismay)
Not to stay, I pray
(All I know is for today)
It will be okay - nay MORE than okay
Cuz to obey is the joy-filled Way
So let us stop this display
And shout, "Hip, hip, HOORAY!"
For today is a day to be gay!
"Why?" you may say, "is this day to be gay
When partings are looming and gray?"
Because Jesus is near
Bringing freedom from fear
And I'd rather have that than sorbet!
