Running Junny

a silly poem, because why not?! Inspired by Shel Silverstein, one of my favorite writers.

Running’s mummy summoned Junny,
To eat his breakfast, and fast!
Because Runnings’ stummies
Get disagreeably hungry, alas!

But Running Junny
Was already talking funny,
And his mummy had the doctor running
to the Running’s residence in a snap!

Even Running Junny liked to go running
Down the sidewalks and streets;
Running Junny’s mummy really didn’t like
His cunning quick pattering feet!

One day little bitty Junny
Ran straight out of the city of Reet.
Ran straight off a cliff to his death,
And they say the drop was quite steep!
