Kind Lost-and-Found Bell Song 040
Song promise: Spencer and Zylar create a visible, open place for one found mitten while Bentley listens from Spencer’s safe hold.
The part everyone joins: “Found one? Make a place and wait.”
Lyrics
Spencer hears the pumpkin leaves tap.
Bentley rests against his chest.
Zylar sees one striped wool mitten.
Spencer says, “Let’s set it where the owner can see it.”
Found one? Make a place and wait.
Set it where the view stays clear.
Leave some room for someone else.
They can choose when they come near.
At the chalk-rock corner, Zylar
holds the mitten low and still.
Spencer sees one empty tray.
“That spot works if you want it.”
Found one? Make a place and wait.
Set it where the view stays clear.
Leave some room for someone else.
They can choose when they come near.
Leaf taps ring like tiny bells.
Chalk marks seem to point the way.
Make-believe mitten stars blink softly,
then the drizzle fades to gray.
At the story porch, Spencer opens
one lost-and-found tray with one hand.
Zylar places in the mitten.
Bentley watches from the safe hold.
Found one? Make a place and wait.
Set it where the view stays clear.
Leave some room for someone else.
They can choose when they come near.

Place it where the owner can see it.
Leave the path and choices clear.
Some may take it now or later.
We can make some room right here.
