Lullaby for Bowden

Plip-plop! Raindrop
Falling on my roof top
Plip-plip-plop
Will it ever stop?

Peep-peep! peepers
Peeping by the pond
Peepers peeping
An evening song.

Splish-splash! big bass
Jumping in the lake
Splitting the silence
Of daybreak.

Whack-whack! Lumberjack
Chopping down a tree
Maple, Pine, Walnut,
Hickory.

Rip-tear! black bear
Digging for some grubs
Mama's gotta feed
Her hungry cubs.

Pitter-pat! kitty cat
Running to her dish
She's hoping for
Some Tuna Fish.

Crash-boom! Racoon
Digging through the trash
When the dogs are out
They're not so brash.
