too aunts
too aunts walking upon the concrete
an the pavement below spoke up at them
“why do you step on me with your feet?”
the too surprised looked down at him
“Watt’s that hue say? could hue please repeat?”
“actually it’s my ant friends about whom I worry” …
“who will get stepped upon and lose their lives!”
the two aunts were surprised as beneath the ants scurried
“No concern” they spoke “we too know strife”
“we too know the feeling of being stepped upon”
“Deer is know concern sew dew knot bee alarmed,
we aunts boat understand watt’s wrong n’ watt’s write”
Aunt sew the ants went on deer weigh toe tallee unharmed!
