Рыбу ловишь – не шумишь.
Рыба по-английски – fish.Если выключу я свет,
Светятся глаза у cat.Весeло бежит щенок,
Вырастет – и будет dog.С рыжей гривою шикарной
Выступает важно lion.К нам приходит в гости в лагерь
Полосатый хищник – tiger.Издает истошный крик
Розовый и толстый pig.Уплывает быстро вдаль
Злой зеленый crocodile.Шел куда-то мимо сквера
Косолапый бурый bear.Очень-очень я пугаюсь,
Если выскочит вдруг mouse.Очень любит смотреть бокс
Рыжая лисичка – fox.
