Animal Walk

Megan and Dana had been in all day
so Mother told them to go out and play.
She told them to have fun, have a whole bunch
but they were to be home in time for lunch.

So Megan and Dana went for a walk
and along the way they stopped just to talk
to an Elephant and a Kangaroo
who were taking a lunch break from the zoo.

The elephant ate some leaves from the trees.
Kangaroo nibbled a shrub by his knees.
They asked the girls if they cared for a munch,
but leaves weren't the girls idea of lunch.

Dana and Megan walked on down the street
and whom do you think they happened to meet?
A big black bear and a little raccoon
who were hurrying to be home by noon.

Their Moms had their lunches ready to eat
so they hurried by on all of their feet.
They both offered the girls a chance to come crunch,
but girls don't eat berries or bugs for lunch.

Then quickly a Blue Bird came flashing by
with a worm so big he could hardly fly.
He only waved, cause with food in your beak,
everyone knows it's not polite to speak.

They saw a Squirrel, a Bee, and a Bunny
sharing their lettuce, their nuts, and honey.
They offered to share their lunch with the girls,
but girls don't eat lunch with Bunnies and Squirrels.

Just then the girls felt their tummies rumble.
They knew that soon it would be a grumble.
They hurried home before everyone heard,
and their Mother fed them without a word.

For their Mother knew, as all Mothers do,
that hungry kids eat until they are through.
And then they can tell their Mom and their Dad
about all the fun that they may have had!
