The Poo

In the middle of the towpath

Was a great big poo

I didn’t do it.

Did you?

NO!

The dog did it.

Too high to go over it..

- we had to go around that poo,

me and you

with great big ruck sacks and a picnic

- it took a day or two

to get around that poo.

THEN

can you believe it?

ANOTHER poo!

Far far to wide to go around it

so over it we did go.

Two great big ladders

(in every girl scouts bag)

positioned carefully.

We hauled ourselves up

with our bags on ropes

We climbed up and up

up and up

and up

until we reached

the squidgy peak

of the great big poo.

and then down the other side

me, then you.

(for a moment I thought we’d fall in)

We conquered that big squidgy poo too.
