Speaker 1 (00:02):
Hi, is Stefania over at Classic Stories for Children, and
we've got a special quick little bedtime poem for you.
Is a classic poem. It's by Edward Lear, and It's cold.

(00:22):
The Owl and the pussy cat, The owl and the
pussy cat. The owl and the pussy cat went to
sea in a beautiful pea green boat. They took some
honey and plenty of money rubbed up in a five

(00:43):
pound note. The owl looked up to the stars above
and sang to a small guitar, Oh, lovely pussy, Oh pussy,
my love. What a beautiful pussy cat you are? You are,
you are, What a beautiful pussy you are? Pussy said

(01:06):
to the owl, you elegant fowl, How charmingly sweet you sing? Oh?
Let us be married too long? We have tarried, But
what shall we do for a ring? They sailed away
for a year and a day to the land where

(01:27):
the bong tree grows, And there in the wood a
piggy wig stood with a ring at the end of
his nose. His nose, his nose, with a ring at
the end of his nose. Dear pig, are you willing

(01:49):
to sell for one shilling? Your ring? Said the piggy,
I will. So they took it away and were married
the next day by the Turkey who lives on the hill.
They dined on mince and slices of quins, which they
ate with a runcible spoon, and hand in hand. On

(02:13):
the edge of the sand, they danced by the light
of the moon, the moon, the moon. They danced by
the light of the moon. And that's the end of

(02:40):
our special bedtime story poem, The Owl and the pussy
Cat by Ewart Lear. We'll be back again very soon
next week with a new story for you, so please
be sure to look forward to We'll be so happy

(03:02):
to come back and be together again for story time.
And that's it for now. And if you want to
have more stories in the meantime, feel free to go
to our website which is in the show notes, where
you can find stories that you can read yourself, all

(03:24):
different kinds of stories. Or you can visit our coffee
page where we have more artwork things that you can

good bye for now.
