THE LITTLE GIRL NEXT DOOR, By Helen Wing.

The little girl next door
    Has hair of fluffy brown,
And when she walks beside me 
     The curls bounce up and down.

Her eyes have twinkles in them,
     They're dancing all the while;
And when she speaks to me, I see
     The dimples in her smile.

Her leggings button at the side,
     She has a coat with fur;
And one day when it snowed, I put
     Her rubber onto her.

I'm saving all my pennies now 
     To buy her something fine;
I saw it in a window-
     It's a fancy Valentine.

It's made of hearts and paper lace,
      It costs a dime or more.
But nothing is too fine to give
      The little girl next door.
