A runaway rutabaga rolled down the street,
Wearing red sneakers on vegetable feet.
It zoomed past a mailbox, it leapt over hay,
Yelling, “No time to chat, I’m a runaway!”
A chicken on roller skates joined in the chase,
While a squirrel in a bowtie picked up the pace.
A goat played kazoo as they dashed through the day,
Following closely behind the runaway.
They splashed through a puddle of blueberry jam,
Startling a juggling, polka-dot lamb.
But the rutabaga stopped and said, “By the way,
I’m not escaping trouble, I’m just out to play!”
So they all had a picnic with cookies and whey,
And laughed till the moon chased the daylight away.
Then home they all wandered, tired but okay,
Including the famous ex-runaway.
