the rat ran up the clock

kids poem

The rat ran up the clock !!

　

Hickery dickery dock,

The rat ran up the clock,

The mouse struck one,

Down came the old rat,

　

Hickery dickery dock,

the rat ran up the clock,

the mouse struck two,

the old rat held on tight,

　

Hickery dickery dock,

the rat ran up the clock,

the clock struck three,

The rat came tumbling down,

eeeeeech,

screech,

I’m falling,

Boom , Boom,

SO that old rat,

Ran back up the clock,

The clock struck four,

And that was the end of that poor old rat.

　

The end,

[Victoria PoetryBunny]

This is a fun write, though I noticed it is similar too the original nursery rhyme called:
Hickory, Dickory Dock
Yet, you changed it with a bit of a different story with the rat and mouse.
I like this, but I like the original better.
