Kelsey, Kelsey,

let's take the time

for a brief trip,

and see what might rhyme.

Now, Kelsey, please tell me:

what makes you laugh?

Oh, certainly, a monkey

climbing up a giraffe.

3

Kelsey Whiting,

tell me what can jump.

A big, green bullfrog

over a hump.

4

Kelsey, Kelsey,

tell me what can fly.

A bluebird soaring

high in the sky.

7

Kelsey, Kelsey,

now let's have some fun,

looking at numbers,

beginning with ONE!

So, Kelsey Whiting,

what do you see?

I see ONE elephant

looking at me.

8

Kelsey, Kelsey,

what do you see?

I see TWO brown bears

juggling for me.

11

what do you see?

I see THREE lions

roaring at me.

12

Kelsey, Kelsey,

what do you see?

I see FOUR monkeys

in a big tree.

15

what do you see?

I see FIVE dogs barking

at that same tree.

16

Kelsey, Kelsey,

what do you see?

I see SIX ducks

swimming toward me.

19

Kelsey Whiting, tell me:

what do you see?

I see SEVEN bunnies

hopping for me.

20

Kelsey, Kelsey,

what do you see?

I see EIGHT cats

staring at me.

23

Kelsey Whiting,

where did those cats run?

Chasing NINE mice

back to where they came from.

24

Kelsey, Kelsey,

what do you see?

I see TEN boys and girls

looking at me.

27

their number is TEN.

They want to know:

will you, Garrett, Ty and Jake be their friends?

Kelsey, Kelsey, they ask:

"Where's your hometown?"

Keller, Texas,

that's where I am found.

31

Kelsey Whiting,

wherever you go,

Mommy and Daddy want you to know...

32

Whether counting or rhyming,

one thing is true:

Mommy and Daddy, dear Kelsey, will always love you.
