THIS MORNING I DECIDED TO CLIMB A TREE.
I WENT W A Y UP HIGH AND TOUCHED THE SKY!
I SAW AN INDIAN'S ARROW SOAR OVERHEAD . . .
I SAW THE ELEPHANTS SHUFFLING THROUGH THE DENSE TREES. . .
I SAW A PANTHER STALKING ITS PREY!
I PLAYED FORT AND JUNGLE AND 'WHERE'S THE KITTY?'
I GOT DIRTY AND SKINNED UP MY KNEE,
BUT . . .
IT WAS GREAT FUN!
WHEN I CAME IN FOR COOKIES AND CARROT JUICE, MAMA CRIED OUT AND SAID, "LAPIN! WHAT A MESSY LITTLE BUNNY YOU ARE! GO TAKE A BATH!"
I WILL DO WHAT MAMA COMMANDS, BUT I WON'T JUST 'TAKE A BATH', I'LL TAKE A BUBBLE BATH! PLAYING WITH BUBBLES IS ALSO GREAT FUN!
CLOSE YOUR EYES AND DON'T PEEK!
WHAT GREAT FUN I HAD, SPLISHING AND SPLASHING IN MY WHIRLING-SWIRLING FROTHY POOL! (I CAN MAKE GREAT FUN OUT OF ANYTHING I DO!), BUT AFTERWARDS, I COULDN'T DO A THING WITH MY . . . HARE! ; ^)
Oh, Jacques, you should write a book! You have such wonderful, interesting adventures. Where are you off to next?
