Will Find a Cactus
Will Find A Cactus
Out in middle of desert may find a cactus
Standing all alone never needing to practice
Like a curve ball arching and never straight
And never has to worry about being late.
With cactus will have to learn a new trick
Pick up carefully and it will not prick
With arms high in air is always standing
Being held up for cash by someone demanding.
As it starts to turn dark as twilight nears
Silhouette looks like one of the Musketeer's ears
Read some more after a nap you just took
Eventually will reach end of the story book.
