3. Dinosaurs
Spread your arms, way out wide,
Fly like a Pteranodon, soar and glide.
Bend to the floor, head down low,
Move like Stegosaurus, long ago.
Reach up tall, try to be,As tall as Apatosaurus eating on a tree.
Using your claws, grumble and growl
Using your claws, grumble and growl
Just like Tyrannosaurus on the prowl.
