The Jaguar's Dinner

Down beside the river, the jaguar prowls
Creeping through the jungle, as quiet as a mouse
She climbs along a branch above the water to see
If she can catch a tasty snack to eat for her tea

Suddenly, she spies with her jaguar eyes
A fish in the river goes swimming by
She licks her lips and wiggles her hips, and jumps with a splash
But she was too slow, it was gone in a flash

She climbs out of the water and shakes off her fur
Then over in the bushes, she hears something stir
She leaps and bounds towards the sound and dives right in
But there was nothing there, it was only the wind

She's picking out the leaves from her jaguar paws
When from the river bank comes the sound of a snore
She creeps across to see what is making the noise
Her tummy rumbles and she can't believe her eyes
Now, she won't be hungry in a very long while
Because she's caught a sleeping crocodile
