There’s a funny rhyme
About a cat who had a dime.
It seems he committed a crime,
This cat with the dime.
Now he’s doing his time
For stealing a dime.
Poor cat failed to climb
When he stole the dime.
He fell on his behind
Clinching that dime.
Now he’s singing a new rhyme
Do not steal a dime.
Never commit a crime,
If you want a dime.
You will do your time
Should you steal a dime.
If you find a tree to climb
When you’ve stolen a dime
You’ll hurt you little behind
Falling and clinching a dime.

Awwww cute! I like funny little piece that have a moral to tell....especially for kids, its important to keep them entertained when trying to teach them something, otherwise it goes in one ear and straight out the other!!

This is rather cute - amazing that you got every word to rhyme with "dime" - wonder if you could have worked the words "lime" and "chime" and "mime" in there somewhere? (LOL).
Best wishes,
