When Peter was a baby

He didn’t learn to crawl

In fact he never wanted

To move around at all

Until one day he had a thought

“Wouldn’t it be fun

If I could get up off the floor

Move my legs and run”

And so when he was 2 years old

He got onto his feet

Stretched his legs, kicked his toes

And ran off down the street

First he ran to nursery

Then he ran to school

He ran to university

His life was never dull

The County picked him for their team

Winning every race

Nobody could ever beat

Peter’s speedy pace
