Now She is Six

When I was One,

I had just begun.

When I was Two,

I was nearly new.

When I was Three,
I was hardly me.

When I was Four,

I was not much more.

When I was Five,
I was just alive.

But now I am Six,

I'm as clever as clever,

So I think I'll be six now for ever and ever.

- from Now We Are Six by A.A. Milne
