Shake silently down the leaves
Red, yellow leaves
Fall quickly from the trees
Blowing, blowing, blowing
Falling, falling, falling
Now the trees are bare.
In science we are learning about the order edentata. This is my Armadillo. I drew him for school because armadillos are in the order edentata, which means "no teeth." Armadillos love to eat ants. They have a long sticky tongue, which ants stick to. Then they can eat them. Most armadillos are fast runners. The three banded armadillo can roll into a ball. They are also good swimmers. They can stay under water, walking along the bottom of rivers and streams for 6 minutes. Since they can't float very well, they blow themselves up with air and float. The armadillo sometimes carries leprosy.
