My hamster has a skateboard.....             (Sept 30 Theme "To be a Flower")


My hamster has a skateboard.
    When he rides it, though, he falls.
He takes off like a maniac
    and crashes into walls.

He screams, "Geronimo!"
    and then goes crashing down the stairs.
He's good at knocking tables down
    and slamming into chairs.

He'll slalom through the living room
    and then you'll hear a, "Splat!"
which means that he's collided with
    my mother or the cat.

He plows right into cabinets,
    and smashes into doors,
I think he's wrecked on every bed
    and every chest of drawers.

It's fun to watch him ride
    because you're sure to hear a smash.
He doesn't skate so well but, boy,
    he sure knows how to crash.
