I met a Man as I went walking: <br />We got talking, <br />Man and I. <br />'Where are you going to, Man?' I said <br /> (I said to the Man as he went by). <br />'Down to the village, to get some bread. <br /> Will you come with me?' 'No, not I.' <br /> <br />I met a horse as I went walking; <br />We got talking, <br />Horse and I. <br />'Where are you going to, Horse, today?' <br /> (I said to the Horse as he went by). <br />'Down to the village to get some hay. <br /> Will you come with me?' 'No, not I.' <br /> <br />I met a Woman as I went walking; <br />We got talking, <br />Woman and I. <br />'Where are you going to, Woman, so early?' <br /> (I said to the Woman as she went by). <br />'Down to the village to get some barley. <br /> Will you come with me?' 'No, not I.' <br /> <br />I met some Rabbits as I went walking; <br />We got talking, <br />Rabbits and I. <br />'Where are you going in your brown fur coats?' <br /> (I said to the Rabbits as they went by). <br />'Down to the village to get some oats. <br /> Will you come with us?' 'No, not I.' <br /> <br />I met a Puppy as I went walking; <br />We got talking, <br />Puppy and I. <br />'Where are you going this nice fine day?' <br /> (I said to the Puppy as he went by). <br />'Up to the hills to roll and play.' <br />'I'll come with you, Puppy,' said I.<br /><br />Alan Alexander Milne<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/puppy-and-i-2/
