Chicken Soup with Rice

June: Tammy and Paige

In June I saw a charming group

of roses all begin to droop.

I peeped them up with chicken soup!

Sprinkle once

Sprinkle twice 

Sprinkle chicken soup with rice.

August:Lisa and Sophia

In August it will be so hot

I will become a cooking pot

cooking soup of course. Why not?

Cooking once

December: Denise and Beatrice

In December I will be

a baubled bangled Chrsitmas tree

with soup bowls draped all over me.

Merry once

Merry twice

Merry chicken soup with rice.
