Monkey and me, were drinking tea
And feasting on fruit cake
But then I felt a rumble, and
The earth began to shake
"I think there's going to be a storm
So we'd better pack up"
Said Monkey "Oh, it's all my fault
I hic-cupped in my cup"

Not sure of the last line. I thought perhaps "I hic-ced inside my cup" Any thoughts?
Or perhaps "My hic fell in my cup"
No...it is perfect the way it is...do not change it..the image of this little monkey hic-cupping in his cup...is quite delightful...truly enjoyed the read...thank you for posting...bkm
and Elaine you have a beautiful smile....
Elaine - I see we were thinking along similar lines! Well done! And I agree with bkm - it's perfect just as it is!
Such an enjoyable, fun piece... perfectly worded.
Very nice - poor monkey, taking the blame :-)
Very clever and original..love it..gallant monkey!!
perfect as is...the hic-cupped is way too charming xo
You let the little monkey start to hic-cup! I did too. Nice verse. I had been trying different solutions to this since Monday. Not so easy to get it together, but you did it!
Best wishes
