Mr. Toad
hopped on the road.
But he wouldn’t hop off.Along came a bike,
Mr. Toad said “Yike!”
But he wouldn’t hop off.
Along came a car,
didn’t miss him by far.
But he wouldn’t hop off.
Along came a truck...
safe! Only by luck!
But he wouldn’t hop off.
Along came a bus...
oh, my, what a muss!
Now he’ll never hop off! ©R. Bartly Betts, 2001 |
