Little orphan Annie,
She had no real granny,
And this made her very sad.
So she wrote Santa a letter,
To forgo any winter sweater,
For a granny instead would be rad.
Santa read what she said,
And then scratched at his head,
Wondering if a granny would fit in a box.
He thus called all around,
Yet no granny was to be found,
So he sent her instead a red fox.
Now, a red fox was no granny,
Nor even an old nanny,
Yet Annie still loved him so.
I think it is time,
That I end this fine rhyme,
Yes I think it’s now time to go.
