And My Name Is Gail.
This is my House, and it’s a Shell.
I’m getting ready to go and get my mail.
But first I have to get across this rail.
So I start across and take a deep breath and inhale.
But before I could finish getting across this rail,
I run into this quail.
His name was Dale.
He told me he would help me get my mail.
But before we could get there, I fell.
I fell Right on to the back of this Whale.
Her name was Mel.
She said she would get me to my mail.
But Before I could get there I slid off Mel.
And slid right on to a ducks tail.
But The Duck got mad and tried to eat me like I was a piece of Kale.
So I let out a wail,
And then I climb onto a fish’s tail.
Her name was Bell.
She got me to my mail.
But Now I got to figure out how I’m going to get back to my shell.

So that's why my mail's always late. And why it took 6 weeks for my package to get to Italy!!!! that was really a great piece of work.

Well, this is delightful. I shall print it and read it to my little grandson. He has quite an imagination and can expect quite a conversation off of this one. LOL
