Four little friends were playing one day,
Three ran off to climb and play,
Two stayed back to build a fort,
One ran after them in short,
But then came Five with a big high-five,
And Six joined in with a happy jive.

Together they played and had some fun,
Enjoying the warmth of the shining sun,
Four, three, two, one, five, six,
Their laughter echoed, oh so sweet!

With games and toys they all did share,
And each of them showed they cared,
So let's all remember this little tale,
That having good friends, never does fail!
