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! :oops:

"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! :oops:
