The End - By A.A. Milne

When I was One,
I had just begun.

When I was Two,
I was nearly new.

When I was Three
I was hardly me.

When I was Four,
I was not much more.

When I was Five,
I was just alive.

But now I am Six,
I'm as clever as clever,

So I think I'll be six now 

forever and ever.

 - A. A. Milne
