Whose tail is flat and wide.
They build a home of sticks
Underwater where they hide.

whose voice can purr
or meow and who

He barks happily when he sees you
Or wiggles his rear end!

White on the outside, yellow in.
Buy them by the dozen, not by the pound.

from a musical standpoint…

It keeps us close together
No matter where we go

T is for tornado
Scary and dangerous they can be

And a wiggly snoot

They stay fresh in the frizzer
And are easy to heat.

On the African plain
With sharp teeth and claws,
and a majestic mane

Fruit that grows on a tree
Delicious, red, and round
Won’t you pick one for me?

It defies understanding.
It’s as big as can be
but somehow keeps expanding.

Way beyond infrared;
It traverses the cosmos
And can see through your head.

Monkeys eat them and so do you
They grow in bunches
So have more than two!

One at your feet
