goat sheep Holstein cow whippet

A goat ate my hair, it made me weep
so like the neck nuzzle from the sheep
the holstein cow mooed at my dismay
all the while whippet wanted to play

goat, sheep,Holstein cow,whippet


A goat can eat everything in sight
But a sheep is really woolly white
A Holstein cow is a good cow
But a whippet runs swiftly anyhow

Orca was a sport, did often cavort;
Beluga visited a fine sunny resort.
Grey whale hauled barnacles to the northern sea,
mink-coated ladies watched needing to pee.

There once was a dude called Hotshot Tuna
Whose friend, Sweetlips Mullet, was a famous crooner.
The Piece of Cod that passeth all understanding
Was left by a pullet on the sixth floor landing.

Mrs Tiggywinkle, a football booster
Mistook for the ball a little red rooster
Henny Penny warned her not to kick it
So instead she passed to Jiminy Cricket.

No child you are a coelocanth from the floor of the ocean
And you have a tapeworm that will move with your motion.

Equus starred in a serious play staged;
canis spent centuries following feet paged.
Felis purred her way to queen's shoulders draped
mus noticed and gathered amid satins caped.

(Love those beast! To the tune of The runaway train)
The celery looper came down the leaf and she blew,
The star-nosed mole nosed up from his tunnel house too,
The grunt appeared on a carpet of reeds
And the mumichog put on a necklace of beads.
And they blew, blew, blew, blew, blew! (Optional 5th line)

The ant dug tunnels with great concentration
The willow warbler thought "Wow, tiny nation!"
The pine marten pecked and said, "Tastes like retsina..."
The swallow said "Eww, I'll be seein ya."

I've never seen a fire-bellied salamander eat
but I have heard of a garter snake sneak
Wonder where the snow monkey is

Now cricket is a game to some and insect to some others.
A finch has got a stoutish bill and often pretty feathers.
A polecat has a stench that you can smell to give you kicks,
And a bat hangs upside down but can be used to hit a six*.

The antelope plays in the open prairie
and a kosher hyena cant eat him with dairy
the red necked phalarope is sporting a mullet
while the ptarmigan has bearberries there in his gut

Iknow-its lame but best I could do

Comet is a reindeer who's very very fast
Blitzen and Donner can catch him and go past.
Distelfink and Pargiter, a Law firm in the city,
I think I killed a pohawn, now isn't that a pity?

The jackal laughs and then gets frowny,
an eider duck is really downy.
Canada goose makes lots of poo,
The handsome whimbrel just says "Eww."

The geoducky is a favourite of Fuller - Bucky
While the teal is quite quacky and not really clucky
The mallard is wild with a satin green head
And the heron makes sure that the fish are quite dead.

I have not seen a goosander in a while
But a zebra gets lots of food in the wild
Can't say I have seen a springbok either
But I have caught a catfish or two with my leader
