If I was a frog
I’d sit on a log
and stick out my tongue
and catch flies
If I was a bee
I’d buzz round a tree
and dive into flowers
to make honey
If I was a mouse
I’d live in your house
and eat all your cheese
and your bread
If I was a snail
I’d leave a white trail
and sleep in a shell
on my back
If I was a child
that lived in the wild
and my mum and my dad
said I could
What I would do
is start my own zoo
with some ants and some slugs
and bugs too!
Tomorrows short story is called The Xylophone
