There was a big commotion at the end of his lane.  All of his other friends were late too. 

No wonder. 

They stopped briefly and smiled to each other and thought “We have a great secret”.

As they passed the Park, they saw the keeper

scratching his head and muttering.  “I am sure I

left the grass neat and tidy.  I know I was tired

yesterday, perhaps I was dreaming.  I think I

should go back to bed for a while”.

The animals looked from one to another and smiled

as in the distance by the big tree stump in the park they

heard a sound.

Hoooo, hoo, hoooooot.
