I'm a Little Teapot

I'm a little teapot, short and stout, Here is my handle, here is my spout. When I get all steamed up, hear me shout, "Tip me over and pour me out!" I'm a little teapot, sitting high, On the kitchen shelf, I wonder why No one picks me up to play, I sit alone here every day. I'm a little teapot, feeling sad, Watching dishes makes me mad. They all get used throughout the day, But here forgotten, here I stay. One bright morning, what do I see? Little Rose is looking at me! "What's that pretty teapot there? It needs some loving care!" I'm a little teapot, hope so bright! Rose reached up with all her might. "Grandma, look what I have found! The prettiest teapot all around!" "Let's have a tea party!" Grandma said, Rose danced around and nodded her head. They filled me with water nice and warm, I felt so happy, safe from harm. I'm a little teapot, steam so high! Watch my bubbles reach the sky! Rose giggled loud with pure delight, "Our teapot friend is working right!" They set tiny cups in a neat row, For Teddy Bear and friends to go. Cookies, crackers, treats so sweet, Making teatime such a treat! I'm a little teapot, pouring tea, Glub-glub-glub so carefully! My spout worked perfect every time, Making teatime so sublime! "Thank you, teapot!" Rose said with glee, "You make the very best tea! Now you're not alone up there, You bring such joy for us to share!" I'm a little teapot, happy now, Serving tea, I show you how! Every day at half past three, Rose and I make perfect tea! From sitting lonely on the shelf, To bringing joy to someone else. When you help friends and make them smile, You'll find your purpose worth your while! I'm a little teapot, short and stout, Here is my handle, here is my spout. When I get all steamed up, hear me shout, "Tip me over and pour me out!"
