My Brother Norm Likes to Jump

by Carolyn Argyle

My brother Norm likes to jump.
He jumps on his feet and on his rump.
He jumps higher every day
He goes out to play.

One day Norm jumped so high
He reached the sky-
Up in the clouds he was lost
We couldn't find him at any cost.

I missed my brother, I was sad
I missed him very very bad.
Until one day we had a storm
And it rained my brother Norm.
