Parody time - with Sid

Looks like Sid is inheriting my penchant for writing poems and parodies. The desirability is, of course, questionable ;-)

Sid usually gets bored on long drives, and one of his pastimes are reciting poems. He first exhausts his entire repertoire of rhymes, and then starts making up poems about whats going in his mind or he is seeing around him at the moment. One one such drive, he came up with following (while licking a lollipop, of course!), entirely on his own:

Five little speckled kids,
Sitting on their speckled seats,
Eating their most delicious lollipops.
Yum! yum! yum!
One jumped into the swimming pool,
When it was nice and cool.
Then four little naughty kids were there ...

[The whole truth is, he started to say "naughty", but then stopped mid-way through the word, since he never is ready to admit that he is naughty :-)]

For reference, the original one that he had learnt last year, goes:

Five little speckled frogs,
Sitting on their speckled logs
Eating their most delicious flies.
Yum! yum! yum!
One jumped into the pool,
When it was nice and cool.
Then four little frogs were there...

  1. Sid started to say "naughty" but cut it off as he doesn't want to admit he is naughty... hilarious! :)
