My Favorite Things

raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens

bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens

brown paper packages tied up with strings

these are a few of my favorite things



girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes

snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes

silver white winters that melt into spring

these are a few of my favorite things



when the dog bites

when the bee stings

when i'm feeling sad

i simply remember my favorite things

and then i don't feel so bad



cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudel

doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles

wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings

these are a few of my favorite things



girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes

snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes

silver white winters that melt into spring

these are a few of my favorite things



when the dog bites

when the bee stings

when i'm feeling sad

i simply remember my favorite things

and then i don't feel so bad

so bad

so bad
