One Little Toad

For a children's picture book

One little toad, sitting in the road

Two little flowers, in the rain showers

Three little seeds, turning into weeds

Four little bees, buzzing ‘round the trees

Five little chicks, pecking at some sticks

Six little moles, digging up some holes

Seven little frogs, sitting on some logs

Eight little llamas, looking for their mamas

Nine little mice, slipping on the ice

Ten little sheep, falling fast asleep
