How do you do? asked the kangaroo.
“I’m bearly well,” growled the bear.
“And, how’s your ant?” quizzed the elephant.
“She’s hopping mad,” said the hare.

“What would it take,” inquired the snake,
“To make them both feel better?
“Why don’t we try,” suggested the fly,
“To send a get well letter?”

“It’ll be no use,” replied the goose.
They're in a snit together.
And they won't come out, I have no doubt,
Unless you fix the weather.
