F ferns or
G grass that's
H home to you
I is for insects
J for juniper
K kelp
L log
M is the moon
N is noontime
O is for otter
P for possum he'll be sleeping soon
Q is quicksand that's very tricky
R rushes
S snakes
T tar that gets you sticky
U is the universe that's
V vast and
W wide
X marks the spot where I love to hide
Y is the yellow bird that sings so sweet
which brings me back to
Z and now my alphabet's complete
in the swamp...oooh ooh
