Burdett Ginn
Burdett Ginn had a big smile,
Because she had run a mile.
She went to the finals and ran a fast mile,
That made her have the biggest smile.

The Phone Call
As soon as Rat was alone,
He tiptoed to the telephone.
And asked to speak to Mr. Hare,
And said, "Hello, it's Ratty here."
The Hare replied, "I want an ice-cream cone."

Who had a very old granny.
She had a real thick paddle,
And used it when he tattled.
And now he has a sore fanny.
