'sidewinder' In the Garage
There’s a ‘Sidewinder’ in the old garage
At least that is what my brother yelled
Running through the bamboo canes playing
‘Tag, I got you and you’re it’!
Well I almost got tagged...
Now I’m too little to know what a ‘Sidewinder’ is,
but one thing I do know, even as young as I am,
I don’t like snakes!
So I am still running,
breaking through these tall, thick canes...
Like I am ‘super girl’
and that ‘Sidewinder’ is ‘super snake’,
even though he is now left far behind!
I didn’t get ‘tagged’
And I am not it!
