Little H
Little Hedgehog.
Come little shnookim come see what I've found?
It's hard and it's prickly and lives under the ground.
Well it's brown and cute, it likes to eat fruit like you.
So shnookim enquire if that's your desire
before he burrows himself under that log.
Excuse me good friend you could help me no end
and pray tell just what species you are?
Shnookie and I have guessed and we've tried
as we've watched you all day from afar.
The little guy looked surprised as he opened his eyes
and looked up over his log.
No need to fear, he says with good cheer
I'm just your neighbourly friendly hedgehog.
