There once was a little girl who was oh so busy,
twirling and spinning, getting frightfully dizzy.
She skipped, jumped rope, and bounced hippity hop.
She did somersaults, cartwheels - she just couldn't stop!

One day some barrettes the little girl was given.
They were charming, colorful, and made of beautiful ribbon.
It was fun - these barrettes could be mixed and matched.
What her mother liked best was they stayed attached.

Once again she was off chasing rainbows and butterflies,
not wiping the hair from her big blue eyes.
These barrettes helped her hair stay neat and in place -
no longer tickling her little laughing face.
