<< From A To Z
Like most boys
bbby the age of eight [do you mean Bobby?]
he could tell
and aligator from a cat
a dog from an elephant [look at all the a's at the beginning of each of
these lines]
a giraffe from a kangaroo
a leopard and a lion from a tiger
a rhinoceros from a zebra
having done his alphabet that way
He knew too some of the ways
that girls were different
had learnt other things
Already he had learnt [you use learnt in stanza above; do you want this
echo?]
that when you kiss a girl
the world looks different
and can be better than
playing football all day
though life can get serious
and given the chance [like this ending - clever weaving to beginning]
can go from Z to B
