Waldo and Woodrow a Walk Thru the Woods

Waldo walked Woodrow thru the woods
They took shade beneath a weeping willow
Next to the weeping willow was a deep dry well 
Next to the well was a tall red oak 
For the first time ever Woodrows floppy ears stood straight up
The well was dry but when he looked up high
He couldn’t believe in front of his eye
A full bucket of water was about to fall over his head
One two three poor Woodrow now wet as can be
He put out his fist ready to box
behind the oak was a laughing sly fox 
The well is dry, completely dry Woodrow & Waldo shoutout and cried
The fox laughed and laughed a few steps away was a beautiful rambling brook
Within seconds their cries turned to a giggle than their giggle turned to laughter
The fox became angered he began to sigh
He rather the two continue to cry  
A sly trick indeed
But the two were best friends they laughed and laughed this wrong away 
The sly fox couldn’t ruin their day 
Angered and sighing now the fox began crying oh how embarrassed he became , he ran away Woodrow and Waldo continued on 
laughing and giggling on their fun and happy day

Ralph Waldo Emerson. When we will see a weeping willow; Softly shedding tears on our pillow; Now and then; Again and again; Sorrow in waves did billow and billow.

This is hilarious to me because I teach children all the time that bullies want them to cry or sigh or get mad or sad. I tell them if they act GLAD and SKIP away, they will have shown the bully he did not take THEIR POWER. I may want to use this for my classes, with your permission and I will use your name. Is this okay with you?
