Sploshy, sploshy goes the raven"
the woman said
"really mother, say something else"
the cunning child stared at her mother
"the raven goes caw caw"
her brother spoke
raising his head from his book
"sploshy sploshy the raven goes
don't you know?"
the mother continued
reading from her poem book
"mother, don't you know?
I'm not a child
I'm full grown
I know what a raven does"
the little gril slid down
she picked up her toys
and then on the windowsill
a raven sat still
opening his beak he said
"sploshy sploshy the raven goes"
