The pony is bony but what the ****
It's more comfy to ride than a farmyard duck.
And don't try and ask for another duck
Or you'll get a cat and be out of luck.

The Victorian Girl walked her prized Gibbon;
the Master Macaque espied her hat's ribbon.
Pink ribbons were pulled by chimpanzee Emily,
spider monkey brought plants, appeasing the family.

Oh Man, I'm just gonna quit
I'm late again, I'll throw a fit
Each time I try, a new poem writ
another sneaks in, a new bit
My list it seems are doomed
forgotton, never bloomed
no animals or birds plumed
all my choices only booed

Pasturella pestis did her bestis
As Esceherichia coli made a mestis
Neisseria meningitidis, a tongue testis
While bacillus subtilis is tres festis!!!

and entered peafowl with nary a sound

While porqupine has quills in the mud.
The leaf miner has played out his stake
And peofowl has found a new drake.

The grey furry tarsier clung to the tree and watched
armadillo slink by doing laps while he swatched
platypus plaids and gooney bird feathers - or,
goose down pillows aligned on the shore.

Black ant, red ant, brown spider said
chow dog, chow dog, where is the bed?
Black lab ran past and then back again,
earth worm grumbled, paws pause, amen.

The scarlet tanager doesn't like the snow
and flies South with the english sparrow
Yellow canary sits safe in the house
Together with Green parakeet watching a mouse

Yakety Yak didn't talk back, but the shrew
on the loose tamed the telephone to.
Newton in short was now known as newt, natch;
Caterpiller crawled begging all to play catch.

Underneath the glabrous leaves, a midge
Put a moth in her resistential fridge.
Not far away a butterfly was raped
And the evil tulgey dragonfly escaped.

I love a great mystery, so what is a tove?
Bandersnatch laughed and said, "I've got it, by jove"
the jubjub bird squawked and he then dove
way down past the silent borogove

With a warthog thought of highly
Wooly mammoths I would knit
And by my wolverine I'd sit.

Pearlie the prawn swam around in the sump.

I had a little pony, his name was Silly Sam,
And he gave a bear cub sandwiches and tunafish and ham.
I drowned a vicious kitty, I do not care a damn
And I turned a pretty red deer into an ancient ram.
