VIEWPOINTS Kid with a wet cloth slopping on the floor: Water dropping everywhere and trickles free. Mum comes dashing in the door - Can’t you try to make less mess for me? I have to clean this now and go down on my knee! Oh mum, please don’t wipe it all away - And leave that big wiggly trickle to run. This is a map of South America I’ve drawn today And that’s the mighty River Amazon. In all the world, it’s the biggest one. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . .. . . . . . . . . . Note Pretty close to the truth, for as kid I was a map-o-holic, (still am), and drew maps freehand whenever I had the chance. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . .
