Flamingo Tests a Toe

flamingo is testing a toe today
we are racing to the water said cousin Ray
I did not relish being down by the bay
on the 4th of july, a truly busy tourist day

come on! he urged me. we can frolic and play
I did not want to go, yet, I did not want to stay
which flamingo is it? I asked my cousin Ray.
The pink one he said, come on Fay!
