Seven

 

 When I have had my evening bath,
And run upstairs and give a laugh,
And Mother switches off the light,
I'll still be six years old tonight.

But, from the very break of day,
Before the children rise and play,
Before the greenness turns to gold,
Tomorrow, I'll be Seven years old.

  Seven kisses when I wake.
  Seven candles on my cake!
