Once upon a midday sunny, while I pondered, calm and funny,
Over many a great and glorious volume of delicious soup,
While I sat there, crackers flinging, suddenly there came a ringing,
As of someone wildly singing, singing on my kitchen stoop.
"'Tis some silly bird," I muttered, "singing on my kitchen stoop.
Only this, but I'll go snoop."
With bated breath,
For fear of death,
I headed south
Right into the mouth
Of a ...
giant cave!
It was concave!
While moisture dripped,
I feared I'd have slipped,
When out of the darkness came ...
Nothing. Nothing. What a shame.
I heard the singing one again,
From somewhere deep within the den,
That had appeared in my kitchen stoop.
"Strange," said I, "but I shall snoop."
And when I went outside to snoop
Some nasty critter had taken a poop
So I went to find my trusty scoop
To clean that mess from off my stoop.
