My Growing Lamb

Zim, zim, zam, my pet lamb,
Chases me across the lawn,
Zim, zim, zam, my pet lamb,
Eight weeks since she was born.

Bip, bop, beep, my young sheep,
Munching on much green grass,
Bip bop, beep, my young sheep,
Growing bigger as weeks pass.

Baa, baa, baa, my woolly friend,
Is now a great big sheep,
Baa, baa, baa, now fully grown, 
Enough to make you weep.

Kp Nunez Date: 8/10/2015 7:52:00 AM Nice! It would really be nice if this is read by kids in this site, John. I no longer have one who's young enough to appreciate this though...so it's only me who does :-))) Login to Reply John Williams Date: 8/10/2015 8:59:00 PM Hi Kim, Yes, this was written for Kindergarten age children. I think it would be nice for them to recite. But it is so nice that you appreciate my work and have an understanding of my writing for different ages. Thanks for stopping by Kim-------your Australian friend-------John
