With winding and weaves,
Their school bus sailed on
Through the new-fallen leaves.

When out on the road
There arose such a clatter,
They threw down their windows
To see what was the matter.

From his head to his toe,
With a pinch of polyester
And a dash of Velcro.

They heard in the straw
The prancing and pawing
Of each little claw.

And called them by name:
