Over in the meadow,
In the sand, in the sun,
Lived an old mother toad
And her little toadie one.
“Wink,” said the mother;
“I wink,” said the one;
So she winked and blinked
In the sand, in the sun.
Over in the meadow,
Where the stream runs blue,
Lived an old mother fish
And her little fishes two.
![Over in the Meadow [Illustration by Anup Singh]](/media/poems-42_1.gif)
“Swim,” said the mother;
“We swim,” said the two;
So they swam and they leaped
Where the stream runs blue.
