Adventures With a Coyote
Oh! Let’s engage in jocund races, in trips to jovial and exotic places!
Let us run bold into a bush with prickly needles. My! How lush would be These pranks and
plays. Now off we race! Well then, it’s high time we let Our spirits free of nines or tens of
obligations. It’s high time we have Spread our wings, and with a mischief’s twinkle fled the heath
of Mundane home. Look now! There is something in the distance. What? What? Let’s see… A
labyrinth, so intricate- with curious and wild places.
Come on now, let’s explore. I’ve got a map; yet even with one, a daring
Individual can get lost. Pray let’s talk sense. You know, before a traveler Engages in a
dangerous sport, he must a map full well explore. Here, Stands a mansion, if form it has- well,
of some sort at least. Near it,

rare me to a shiver brings…This is some
Strange beast, who has a treasure for many years now concealed. He is in Rage. Now this is

away,
It’s dark…Away we fly, until home warm we find. With a sigh, we say, “Now rest we can. We are
so tired!!”
