The Secret

...

.

We have a secret, just we three,
The robin & I & the sweet cherry tree;

The bird told the tree & the tree told me;
And nobody knows it but just us three.

But of course, the robin knows it best,
Because he built the ____ I can't tell the rest;

And laid the four little - something in it -
I'm afraid, I shall tell it, every minute!

But if the tree & robin don't peep,
I will try my best the secret to keep;

Though I know when the little birds fly about,
Then the whole secret will be out.

Will begin with box and the plural

is boxes

But the plural of ox should be oxen

not oxes

Then one fowl is goose but two

are geese

Yet the plural of mouse should never

be meese

You may find a lone mouse or a

whole set of mice

But the plural of spouse is spouses

not SPICE

Then the masculine pronouns are

He, His and Him

But imagine the feminine

She, Shis and Shim
