All Those Legs
Two legs sat upon three legs with one leg in his lap.
In comes four legs, grabs one leg, and runs off with him.
Up jumps two legs, grabs up three legs, throws it after four legs,
and makes him bring back one leg.
Who are we?
One leg is a leg of mutton. Two legs is a person. Three legs is a stool. Four legs is a dog.

My last letter asks a question.
