' The ripples in the water, splash against the rocks, •in the clean cleat water we wash our dirty socks Birds are flying through the ■ air, lying there I did stare, Then •turning my head around, around, across the road I saw a hare. Its getting late the sun begins to set, I guess my supper I'll start to get. The hoot of an owl, the growl of a bear, You must be careful and must be aware. Of course the animals aren't . the only ones, There's the tree in the woods and the stream that runs. Please be careful -with matches matches and flame, For forest fires they start and what a shame. Its time to go to bed now, I've got to get some sleep For early in the morning, the birds begin the peep. I've got to go to sleep now tommorrow's on its way Vnd then once again I'll start an early day.
