Don't Drink Bees

Hoot Hoot Owl, sitting in a tree
Where, oh where, can the full moon be?

The moon is playing hide and seek
Close your eyes, and do not peek
Count to ten, then you can look
For the hiding place the full moon took

1 – 2 – 3, 4, 5
Where, oh where, Moon, did you hide?
6 – 7 – 8, 9, 10
Ready or not! The game begins!

Hoot Hoot Owl, I can’t see
Where that silly moon might be!

Could it be hiding in my tree?
Could it be hiding in my beak?
Is it now beneath my wing?
So many places for hiding!

Hoot Hoot Owl, the moon is wide!
Those places are too small to hide!

What’s the light behind that cloud?
Is there something coming out?
Does the wind play on your side
And show a bigger place to hide?

Hoot Hoot Owl, you’re so wise!
I see that moon up in the sky!
The wind blew all the clouds away
Revealing the moon’s hiding place
Now, it’s my turn. Close your eyes,
Moon, while I go, run, and hide!
