- (continued from previous page)A flock of white sheep on a red hill,
Here they go, there they go
Now they stand still.
Teeth in your gums. - As round as an apple
As plump as a ball
Can climb up the Church
And steeple and all.
The sun.A kitchenful, a roomful, but you wouldn't catch a spoonful.
Smoke.Round the wood and round the wood
But never gets into the wood.
Bark.What's full of holes but still holds water.
A sponge.- Collector
