Octopus On a Dock
(adding 8 + 2)

An octopus with 8 legs,
Sat on a sandy dock,
Thinking having 10 legs,
Would really, really rock!
She called her friend,
A two-legged beast,
Who joined her on the dock,
She said sit here,
On my head,
Then we'll really rock!!!
We now have 8 plus 2 legs,
'Cause ten legs really rocks,
The only problem,
We might have,
Is where to find ten socks!!!
