I’ll grab a pirate by his hook Or swim across the deep blue sea. I’ll catch every single crook Or swing like a monkey in a tree. I’ll fly a rocket to the moon Or sing in just my underwear.

Beware the hungry hawk Perched on a high tree limb! Mice, rabbits, and squirrels Had better keep an eye on him. Bruce Larkin Click Here To See More Poems
I searched for jewels and treasure, And mined for golden ore. I head home a bit wiser, But no richer than before. Bruce Larkin Click Here To See More Poems
