These Are a Few of My Favorite Things

Every year when the tulips bloom, the same song comes to mind,

"Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens

Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens

Brown paper packagaes tied up with string

These are a few of my favorite things""Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels

Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles

Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings

These are a few of my favorite things"
"Girls with white dresses with blue satin sashes,

Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes

Silver white winters that melt into springs

These are a few of my favorite things"

What not everyone breaks into song when they see the tulips bloom? Maybe we should all take a cue from Von Trapp family and break into song any time of day even when going to bed:
