A Beetle Once Sat on a Barberry Twig

A beetle once sat on a barberry twig,
And turned at the crank of a thingum-a-jig.
Needles for hornets, nippers for ants,
For the bumblebee baby a new pair of pants,
For the grizzled old gopher a hat and a wig,
The beetle ground out of his thingum-a-jig.

That for sure is one I have never heard. But once again leave it to the well versed Granny Silvie to bring up a classic. Thank you.

9 month-old Marty, could crawl and scoot.

One day his Mother smelled a toot.

With a searching glance,

and a check of his pants,

she found a diaper full of poop!

"Oh my," She said, checking his drawers.

"I thought it was gas, but it's something more."

Better get some diapers, and some baby powder too!

Cause Marty just pooped his pants, Shooo-wee, Shooo!
