Upon a Stream

I gazed upon a stream one day And saw the ducks swimming along the way The water so blue and clear and gleaming I felt as though I had started dreaming The frogs were hopping with their tiny feet, Until the water makes appeared that they didn't want to meet, Logs went by so swiftly and smooth; And grasshoppers jumped as trying to move The day was mild, clear and sunny, As the fish maneuvered underwater so funny I felt so content that I started giggling Until I noticed on alligator's tail wiggling I jumped immediately from the grass; As a driver in a race pushes the gas I tripped and stumbled as I started to run, To my father's shack where he kept his gun While returning I split my seams, in my jeans; That my mother bought who was pretty mean How I'd wish this was a dream But it actually occurred upon a stream.
