hide and go seek.
The snake takes a slide
over the peeks and topples the mountain
through the foliage
down the slippery track
there he meets a beaver
snake takes beaver by the hand
shaking vigorously where they stand
before deciding
nows a good time for a game
they both agree
with bright eyes n bushy tails
this playtime is for real
beaver counts one, two, three
snake tries the back door
but the doors too tight
four, says the beaver
what is snake to do?
He has nowhere else to run too
beaver shouts five and sneaks a look
then watched in sweet surprise
as the snake buries himself in the bush
rite before her eyes.
