If you’re walking by the bushes

at the end of the lane

you may hear a little quack

as the sun begins to wane.

You may look for the water

where the ducks might be,

but there’s no-one in sight

just the rustling of the leaves.

Would you believe

the quack that you heard

was the sound of an owl,

a sad little bird.

“A quacking owl?”

I hear you exclai...

In the deep dark woods

lived a great brown bear,

he was seven feet tall

but the townsfolk didn’t care

for although the bear was huge

and had fangs and long sharp claws,

all the people would make fun of him

and point out his big flaw.

Have you ever met a bear

But soon the lad grew older,
he wanted to look more lush
so onto his back he tied himself
a little scrubbing brush.

His friends, well they just laugh...

You'll often see them running

and chasing across the plains,

a rabbit skipping and laughing

at an eagle, in great pains.

Sadly he’s afraid of heights

and frightened he may die.

An eagle that can't fly,

well surely that's not right,

it's just like having an owl

who won't come out at night.

But then on...
