Hopscotch

I never understood
The joy people got
from Hopscotch
I didn't understand the rules
I still don't

Fred The Ant

I really don’t think
Fred
Is a suitable name for an ant
Said Fred the ant

Complain to Tony
He was told

Tony, with all due respect
Fred
Is no name for an ant,
It does not suit an ant,
Could I be re-named as Clive?

No. Fred will do you just fine.
You don’t look like a Clive.
You stick with Fred
And don’t waste my time
There’s a lot of work to do.

Fred went back
To his work
And thought how different
Life would be
If he had been given a name like Clive
