Waiting for the Mail

Every day without fail
I wait for the mail
In rain and snow and hail,
I wait for the mail!

I wait for a letter from my pen pal, Jay,
Who lives in a country that is far away.
Finally, on Friday, his letter comes my way,
And I write Jay back the very next day!

Firefighters
Down the street the engine goes
The firemen fight the fire
Up the ladder with their hose
Out goes the fire.


I am a fireman, dressed in red.
With my fire hat on my head.
I can drive the firetruck, fight fire too,
And help to make things safe for you.
