5 Little Insects

Five Little Insects

Original rhyme by Amber Passey

Five little insects
Talking late one night,
The first one said,
You gave us quite a fright!
The second one said,
Was it when I went bright?
The third one said,
No, I don’t think that’s right.
The fourth one said,
Not when there was light.
The fifth one said,
When you were out of sight!

Oh no! Said the Firefly,
Try as I might,
I can’t stop blinking
My little light.
