[Plowed-Ground]
My brDother, and I were fiGve and ten years Dold
We were headed for Uncle Grovers for a Ahaircut
Not Dto "walk on plowed grounGd," we were Dtold
But it was much shorter, so we tooAk the sDhortcut
SprinGg rains had made the plowed ground likeD muck
Before you knowed it, little brother and I wereA stuck
So scaDry, we thought we werGe in quick-Dsand
Then came Dad, in hip boots, to Alend us a Dhand
He carGried us Dout,
One under eachA arm
SaiDd he had heard ouGr mournfulD shout
Rescued us, savingA us from hDarm
My brother, and I, we cleanedG off the mud without a Dsound,
Looked at each other, andA knew
We wouldD never, ever, again cut Gacross plowed grDound.
We would walk to Uncle Grovers,
But not "over ploAwed-grounDd"
