Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me Too

Shel Silverstein 2002 3rd Grade

Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too

Went for a ride in a flying shoe.

“Hooray!”

“What fun!”

“It’s time we flew!”

Said Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.

Ickle was captain, and Pickle was crew

And Tickle served coffee and mulligan stew

As higher

And higher

And higher they flew,

Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.

Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too,

Over the sun and beyond the blue.

“Hold on!”

“Stay in!”

“I hope we do!”

Cried Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.

Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too

Never returned to the world they knew,

And nobody

Knows what’s

Happened to

Dear Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.
