Harry the Hippo's Balloon Ride Over the Waterhole

Harry the hippo wanted to see,

All over the waterhole wild and free...

Although with his new sunglasses, he was delighted...

He was still considerably short - sighted

So the hippo decided to try...

A hot air balloon so two tickets he did buy...

Very soon he was flying high....

A thousand metres in the sky

Although the balloon quite easily flew...

Harry the hippo had put on a pound or two

As they were travelling over crocodile rock...

Harry the hippo got a very big shock

The balloon sank........into the riverbank

Harry the hippo fell on his flank !

No wonder the balloon wouldn't go....

Harry had found that the wind didn't blow !
