Sambo takes a swim
One very hot day Sambo went for a swim Left his clothes on the bank which was foolish of him For a pelican ate them without much ado Said Sambo I m off- or he ll swallow me too!"

EDITORS COMMENTS
A Blazing Day: The Playful Adventure of Sambo and the Pelican Amidst the sun-kissed shores of an African landscape, a carefree young boy named Sambo takes a refreshing dip in the crystal-clear waters to escape the scorching heat of the day. With the warmth of the sun on his back and the gentle lapping of the waves against the shore, Sambo revels in the simple joy of swimming. However, as he frolics in the water, oblivious to the world around him, a pelican glides gracefully towards the riverbank. Unbeknownst to Sambo, his clothes, carelessly left behind on the sandy shore, become an enticing target for the pelican's sharp beak. In an instant, the pelican snatches up Sambo's clothes, leaving him in a state of surprise and amusement. Suddenly, Sambo's laughter turns to alarm as he realizes the pelican's intentions. With a mischievous grin, he exclaims, "I'm off - or he'll swallow me, too!" and makes a hasty exit from the water, leaving the pelican with a mouthful of fabric. This charming rhyme, set against the backdrop of African history, captures the spirit of childhood adventure and the playful interactions between humans and nature. The image of Sambo and the pelican is a delightful reminder of the whimsical moments that can be found in even the most ordinary experiences.
