I Made a Mistake

I went to the pond to catch a frog
I made a mistake and caught a hog

I went to the forest to find a mushroom
I made a mistake and found a vacuum

I went to the market for meat to grind
I made a mistake and got a watermelon rind

I went to the mall to buy an ant farm 
I made a mistake and bought a barn

I went to school with a folder
I made a mistake and came home with a boulder

I went upstairs to fetch a table
I made a mistake and came down with this fable
