Please Come Back

Old man bullfrog Croaking at the pond Splash, kerplunk! Now he’s gone. Wise old crow Strutting in the grass Caw! There’s a grub; Flies off fast Shh, there they are: Fawn and doe Snap! goes the twig; Off they go High in a tree, Red-tailed hawk Won’t let me close; He won’t talk Squirrels on the ground Chasing tails Missy scares ‘em off; Never fails Mister black racer Warming in the sun Slithers when we get there; You’re no fun! Wait, little friends, We won’t attack Just want to visit, Please come back!
