Alpha-Gator Story
Once there was an Alpha-Gator
Who absolutely adored the alphabet
He ate the letters and had sweet
Alphabet dreams all night long.
On Monday, he ate the letters ABCDEF.
Then he closed his eyes to get some sleep.
But the pointy part of the A kept
Poking him in his tummy
And he couldn’t sleep a wink all night long!
On Tuesday, he ate the letters GHIJK.
Then he closed his eyes to get some sleep.
But H and I made a word and said it over and over-
HI, HI, HI!
And he couldn’t sleep a wink all night long!
On Wednesday, he ate the letters LMNOP.
Then he closed his eyes to get some sleep.
But the O kept rolling back and forth in his tummy-
And he couldn’t sleep a wink all night long!
On Thursday, he ate the letters QRSTUV.
Then he closed his eyes to get some sleep.
But the S kept saying SSSSS and playing snake
in his tummy
And he couldn’t sleep a wink all night long!
On Friday, he ate the letters WXYZ.
Then he closed his eyes to get some sleep.
And he dreamed sweet Z’s
All night long!
See you later Alpha-Gator! |
