Jack & The Stalk


Once upon a time a boy named Jack

Decided to climb and brought his pack

He came to a tree, much taller than he

And thought he should look, and see what there was to see

He put one foot in front of the other

Only to see at the bottom was his mother

She was waving and calling him to come to supper

He started back down, and thought 'what a bummer'

Until next time he said to the tree

And as he walked away he was stung by a bumblebee.

The end.
