LICKETY-SPLICKETY

Lickety-spickety
Where are we going?
Lickety-spickety
What shall we do?

Lickety-spickety
Put on your puddle boots.
Lickety-spickety
grab your umbrella too.

    We have been having monsoon rains.  It is fun to have rain.  The cacti plump up with water.  The creosote bushes blossom.  The Paloverde trees get new leaves, and if we are very lucky, we get to go out in the rain and it feels wonderfully cool.
     Lickety-spickety is a nonsense word which can mean hurry up; can you try writing a poem today that uses a rhyming nonsense word in the poem?  Have fun writing.
