Quit! We're Not Quite Quiet

Be quiet, Quit, quit talking Quite,
We're working till we get this right.
Your names all start with q, u, i,
So start with that each time you try.

Quit, add t, then you can quit,
Q, u, i plus t, that's it.
Quite, spell quit, but you're not through,
Add an e, and Quite, that's you.

Quiet, the toughest one to do,
Start q, u, i like the other two.
Then add the e and then the t.
Quiet, now it's you we see.

So aren't you glad we didn't quit?
We've done quite good, just think of it!
Now just be quiet, you can't deny it.
You all can spell quit, quite and quiet!
