The alligator chased his tail

Which hit him in the snout;

He nibbled, gobbled, swallowed it,

And turned right inside-out.

I love noodles. Give me oodles.

Make a mound up to the sun.

Noodles are my favorite foodles.

I eat noodles by the ton.

Snow makes whiteness where it falls.

The bushes look like popcorn balls.

And places where I always play,

Look like somewhere else today.

 Let me fetch sticks,

Let me fetch stones,

Throw me your bones,

Teach me your tricks.
