One, two

Go to the zoo

Three, four

Hear the lion’s roar

Five, six

Don’t fall for the monkey’s tricks

Seven, eight

Feed the fish bait

Nine, ten

That’s a big fat hen!

*

Ten, nine

See the snake’s spine

Eight, seven

Be out by eleven

Six, five

The bats are alive

Four, three

Want to go with me

Two, one

I am done!

About the Creator

Mother Combs

Come near, sit a spell, and listen to tales of old as I sit and rock by my fire. I'll serve you some cocoa and cookies as I tell you of the time long gone by when your Greats-greats once lived.
