Mr. Badger

Well hello Mr. Badge
so nice to meet you today
with your stripy colours
it`s time to be on your way

from the warmth of your burrow
to the coolness of the night
now it`s time to go a-hunting
until the dawn brings the light

off you scuttle along the track
sniffing and digging as you go
where will you end up tonight
I`m not sure you really know

 as the sun starts its journey
and the world begins its new day
I`ll say goodnight Mr. Badger
let you sleep and be on my way.
