Plane Daft!
Rufus Four Legs’ got bad habits;
Chasing cats and chasing rabbits,
Up the stairs and down their holes,
And stealing titbits from their bowls.
Every time a bird flies by,
Rufus rushes off to try,
And grab them, though he never could…
He perseveres as if he would!
He’ll never catch the other things,
That hover by, or fly with wings;
But that won’t stop him trying to,
Catch a helicopter too!
Every time a plane flies past,
Off he rushes very fast,
And try as hard as Rufus will,
Every plane escapes him still!
But never mind, it does him good,
Just as walking with us would;
Any time he hears a plane,
It exercises him again!

ReplyDeleteHi, Peter, good to hear from you. I have had a long period over December when I simply couldn't write anything. Hope to have a bit more inspiration with the new year. I trust you had a good Christmas, not too hot for you? I hear there are fires everywhere in OZ at the moment, and my sister has a rural property in New South Wales, so keeping my eye on the map. Happy New Year to you from a damp, gloomy England, Stephen.
