After Spilling My Milk on Purpose

 

If couldn’t be a drop of rain

I’d like to be a leafy tree.

My sister can be such a pain

Such a buzzing bumble bee.

 

If I couldn’t be a rainbow trout

I’d like to be a cup of tea.

My brother I’d like to shout

Is a most annoying flea.

 

If I couldn’t be a loaf of bread

I’d like to be all of Illinois.

My folks’ve sent me up to bed

For being such a naughty boy.

 

If I couldn’t be a purple cow

I’d love to be a pot of jam.

Catsup says with a soft meow

She loves me as I am.
