Imaginative and warm, two friends having fun together and tuckered out at the end of their jaunt. Last three lines aren't as smooth to read as the others. I think it's because the first two of the last stanza are a bit too long and need to be shortened.

I love the poem. Two friends playing, my what a day. The friends hopped along. My kids used to experiment. Some times they would try to hop every where they went just to see how a cricket or bunny would spend their day. Great work.

This was a very cleverly imagined poem, and one that I could easily see being read to a child or a group of children. A lovely image of friendship and lighthearted fun. Well written.

Sweet. I like the flow. Perfect for a children's book of poems. I think you might want to arrange the words differently. I would like to see it right justified instead of centered.
