Listen to poem:

Not going far in my car

pitter patter drips drops and plops
blathers blatters splatters sploshes and drips
bitter twitter twatters and twaddles, flips and flops

chitter chatter babbles claptrap baas and blahs
slithering sliding slues, slips and skips
blotches mottles splotches and spots scars and mars

splutter flutter splatter clatters, a kick-started motorcar
crunched cracked munched and punched the whacked gears strips 
hipping and hopping, skipping and bop bop bopping, we're not going far
