A Tail Like a Fish

Too-tall Jackson had a tail like a fish But when he swam his gym shoes went squish-squish He took up basketball That was sure the right call Happy end to his tale ~ A perfect swish!

It is always all my fault. My wife has trained me well. I can now roll over, sit up and beg too. ~ Arf
