Big crow, small crow,
on the wing,
counting, counting
everything...
One sun rising
TWO shadows gliding
THREE people rowing
FOUR trees blowing,
FIVE cats lapping
SIX socks flapping
SEVEN herons wading
Eight geese parading
NINE farmers haying
TEN children playing
Small crow, big crow,
home they go,
counting things
they see below...
TEN children snoozing
NINE farmers snoring
EIGHT geese resting
SEVEN herons nesting
SIX socks hardly stirring
FIVE cats purring
FOUR trees standing
THREE boats landing
TWO shadows slowing
ONE sun glowing
Big crow, small crow,
dreaming deep,
counting nothing,
fast asleep.
