For the joy that he has given

Of crimson and gold in the glades
A visual treat
You just cannot beat
The trees in their wondrous parades.

But was scared by some loud barking mutts
He ran up a tree
Thinking "Dearie me"

A squirrel was burying nuts
But was scared by some loud barking mutts
He ran up a tree
Thinking "Dearie me"
"I'd like to bite their hairy butts".

With roads so busy

Trying to avoid Nosey Parker
And her dog, a very fierce barker,
I hid in the park
Where it was quite dark
And saw an otter named Tarka.

A young otter climbing a tree
As piglet flew past
He did look aghast
At empty booze bottles or three.
