Two Kiddies once went out for a walk, There was much of laughter, much of talk. They met in the middle of the road The funniest, jumping, hopping Toad. A Crow on a fence was singing "Caw," And many more things those Kiddies saw. A Birdie was swinging on a bough, While a Cat beneath was saying "Meow." A Bull Dog was lying in the sun, He knew where his bones were, every one. They saw a Chipmunk hide in the grass, And a jumping Bunny Rabbit pass. A Moo Cow scratched her ear with her hoof; Some Puppies saw them and called "Woof, woof;" And once in a while those Kiddies would stop To make some Grasshoppers hop, hop, hop. 'Twas tragic, the ending of the walk, We lower our voices when we talk,— Some Bees had a nest built in the path— 'Tis lacking in grace to even laugh. |
