Spud's New Car

Listen to poem:
Spud's New Car, a tribute to my ever so lovely hamster Spud  . . . 

SPUD’S NEW CAR

My hammy has hit the wheel, but; doesn't seem to be getting very far 
So I thought for Crimbo; I would buy him a new, battery-operated car 

First, he gave it the eye-ball; and then he gave it a few indignant sniffs
Next thing he was running round in it; even asked me, if I wanted a lift 

O’ for the life of Riley he was just having himself a right old flamin’ ball
Then he decides that he would give all of his other hammy mates a call 

Wow smart motor Spud; what has happened did you lad win the pools
As all the other little hammy’s lined up; and, over his new car did drool

It's a Crimbo pressie off me Mammy says Spud; cheered me up no end
Now my bleeping of the car horn is silently driving her round the bend

The other little hammy’s then jumped in the car, each taking it in turns
Revving up the motor; making all the tyres squeal; and, in turn so burn

A Grand motor you have got there Spud; you must ever, so very proud 
Aye, said Spud; as yet again, he bleeped his horn, as so very extra loud

Then it was gotta to go lads; for there is something special I have to do 
Spud waved his good-byes; and, it was off in his brand new car, he flew

It was down to the local shops for some flowers and some sesame cake
Just like the ones, his Mommy; that just for him used to make and bake

Then Spud; raced back home again, for Mom he did not want to be late 
Just to find his beloved Mommy; waiting just for him at the garden gate

It was a fabulous Crimbo really; and, Spud truly loved his brand new car 
Mommy; got her thank-you flowers, and, Spud is now away, driving afar 

"God Bless His Little Heart" Mom x x x

Indiana <--- Spuds proud Mom . . . : )
