Cinco de Milo: Five on the Fifth

 

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

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

~Waldorf Traditional Rhyme
