Shh… I am looking for flies.

I have to be very sneaky
to catch them.
Once they come closer and closer,
Snap! I caught it.

Crunch! Crunch! Crunch!

I always tell my mom to make me
a fly sandwich, but she says no.

I always say, “But I am so hungry
I could eat a horse,”

And she says,

“You’re too little to eat a horse.”
