Cuckoo Clock

by BOB GALLO   May 4, 2020


Ticktock-ticktock
thus said the mockingbird of a clock,
baa-baa
thus said a sheep’s flock.
hoot hoot
thus said an owl sitting on the rock
Quack-quack
thus said the mediocre duck:
knock-knock hey
you’re being mocked
in the chirping of mockingbirds
of these cuckoo clocks.

knock-knock.
quack-quack...
ticktock-
ticktock

    :) a nice nursery rhyme to read for a child but from a adult's point of view even nature's children laugh at our plight...good one!
