TOMMY.
Wee little Tommy went out for some fun, Marched like a soldier, a stick for a gun, Saw a dog coming, and started to run. Fie! Tommy, fie!
Wee little Tommy said he'd kill a shark, If he could find one that day in the park, Yet he lay trembling, that night in the dark.'
Oh ! Tommy, oh !
Some day, wee Tommy, you'll grow up a man Keep a brave heart, little lad, if you can; Dont' talk about it, 'twas Faint Heart who ran. On ! Tommy, on ! —Marie L. Johnson in "Our Little Dots."
