Once, there was a fox

    sneakier than a sock

    he lived in his den

    with a very funny hen.

    He saw a squirrel at the tip-tip-tip-top

    watching an acorn just about to drop.

    There was Fox,

    sneakier than a sock,

    about to catch an acorn,

    sillier than a lacorn.

    Ahh! What did he do?! 

    There was Squirrel, angrier than a shoe.

    ''You stole my acorn!'' we imagine he said, with his tail tufted up and birds in his said.
