Cup full of juice, so sweet and so red,
An apple in hand, with a crunchy sound it's fed,
Ants marching by, in a line so neat,
Cat playing nearby, with its furry feet.

Alligator in the pond, with its big wide smile,
Snapping its jaws, all the while,
But don't worry, it's just playing too,
Having fun in the sun, like me and you.

And what do we have here, an ax so bright,
For cutting wood, with all its might,
So strong and sturdy, it helps us build,
Our homes and our dreams, with love fulfilled.

So let's enjoy this day, with these friends so true,
Playing and having fun, just me and you,
With a cup of juice, and an apple in hand,
We'll make memories that will forever stand.
