The Lizard With No Legs

Daddy was working in the yard last week 

and ran in to say,

"Honey grab a cage for me. 

I caught a lizard with no legs." 

"A lizard with no legs?" I thought 

and hurried round to see

A little lizard with no legs it was 

or "joint snake" to me.

Oliver skipped into the room 

to join the fun and noise

He hurried over with big eyes 

and even dropped his toys!

"Mommy, daddy look, A joint snake," 

he exclaimed with great joy.

We smiled, laughed and answered back, 

"You are such a smart little boy!"

We kept him in a cage for days,

well only two or three

for if we kept him any longer

we'd have to catch a bee!
A bee, cricket, spider, bug

they're all the same to me

For this little lizard with no legs

really did need to eat!

We let him go

With much sorrow

To share him with the land

We hope to see you again

That's our story, THE END.
