15 BOY BLUE AND THE DRUM

Once upon a time, there was a Drum.
He lived in a Toy Store.
One day he said, “I will go and play with Little Boy Blue.”
He marched out of the Store.
He marched and marched till he met a Gun.
“Good morning,” said the Gun. “Where are you going today?”
“I am going to play with Little Boy Blue,” said the Drum.
“Do not go, Drum,” said the Gun. “Stay and play with me.”
“No, I will not,” said the Drum. “You would only shoot me. I will not stay with you.”

And the Drum marched away.
By and by he met a Sword.
“Good morning,” said the Sword. “Where are you going today?”
“I am going to play with Little Boy Blue,” said the Drum.
“Do not go,” said the Sword. “Stay and play with me.”
“No, I will not,” said the Drum. “You would only stab me. I will not stay with you.”
And the Drum marched away.
He went on and on till he met a Bugle. “Good morning,” said the Bugle. Where are you going today?”
“I am going to play with Little Boy Blue,” said the Drum.
“Do not go,” said the Bugle. “Stay and play with me.”
“No, I will not,” said the Drum. “You would only beat me. I will not stay with you.” And the Drum marched away.
He came to Little Boy Blue’s House.
The Drum said, “Good morning. Will you play with me?”
“Oh, yes, I will play with you!” said Little Boy Blue.
So Little Boy Blue played with the Drum.
He played so hard, that the Drum fell down and broke his head.
