This is a beauty, brown and shiny.
The other conkers all look tiny.
I tread the string and then take aim.
I know I'm bound to win the game.
I've had my go and scored a hit.
Now Jenny tries and misses it.
another go. I'm doing well.
Then Jenny's turn. You just can't tell
Who's going to win. she takes a hit.
Oh no! She's won! my conker's split!
