Senya and a good songs. The story

Senya and a good songs. The story.


Senya and  friends sat in the evening on a bench in the yard and discussed various topics.

At some point there was a pause in the conversation.

- “Kids, probably, fell asleep..”. - Senya dreamily told.

Friends looked at Senya and remained silent, waiting for Senya to say next.

- “If to sing songs for them?” - Senya suggested.

- “Right, Senya!” -  the friends approved . – “It is a good idea!”

At first they sang "It would be nice, of course, it would be nice ..."

Then - "We wish you happiness!"

One of friends flashed by intellect and asked: “Do you know what songs were in 1912?”

Again there was a pause.

The intellectual dude got up and started singing: "Reign for glory, for our glory!"

Everyone stood up, the mood was solemn.

Good, kind songs were performed for kids!

Probably under good songs kids fell asleep without complaints about lack of food, clothes, and money for ice cream...

- "Kids love me!" - Senya told friends. - "98 percent!"

- “98 percent! And a half a percent!” - friends corrected the imprecision.

Senya went to the kids with a good mood: "A good songs were sung. Friends are honest people. Fairy tales this time no need to invent. The kids fell asleep today and without fairy tales... under a kind songs …".
