A Song of Samlethe
by Sandra
- The first bear did swim by day,
- And it did sleep by night,
- It kept itself within its cave
- and ate by starry light.
- The second bear it did cavort
- 'Neath canopies of trees,
- And danced its odd bearish sort
- Of joy for all to see.
- The first bear, well, 'twas hunted,
- And today adorns a floor.
- Its ruggish face has been dented
- By footfalls and the door.
- The second bear did step once
- Into a mushroom ring,
- And now does dance the dunce
- For wisps and unseen things.
- So do not dance, and do not sleep,
- Or else be led astray
- For bears all end up six feet deep
- At the end of Samlethe's day.
