The merganser is quite handsome,
the common pochard is wanted for ransom.
The muscovy duck makes nice confit,
The shoveller likes his shellfish spree.

El chupacabra dances the cucaracha
The indigo windigo witnesses his departure
While acalymma vittata dances tangos
With crioceris asparagi round the mangos.

A bull shark came thundering up on the wave
With a tiger shark, going to a rave.
They bumped into a bland great white
And a hammerhead the following night.

That gibbon is looking at you
Whereas that chimpanzee is cute too.
The rhesus monkey is very strange
But the ape is up on my range!

Tarantulas bite took a millesecond
It downed tanager and sent him beyond
The terrified toad dove into the pond
To hide with the tortoise under the frond
The dolphin cried and wanted revenge
The deer promised, he swore to avenge
Damselfly alone, took up the challenge
And dachshund squished spider, while in a rage

good Ceili

I saw a porpoise playing in the sea
But where is that penguin in the cold key
I never saw a ptarmigan playing near that tree
Whereas the platypus walks on by my knee

A pretty bill has the whippoorwill,
A nightjar sings on the windowsill.
Beware the puffback and the jubjub bird
Or the brocket might make you feel absurd.

Vixen got loose from Santa's sleigh
while the vole vamped his clarinet to play
so the vermiculum danced in wondered belief
to the tiny spiny anteater's relief

'With what porpoise did you come?'
I asked the shark but the shark was dumb.
I sat down to my roast of lamb
I eat a camel when I can.

Bactrain camel, is it one hump or two?
With scarab's mandibles, who needs kung-fu?
Dung beetle's interests, lay sadly in poo
Great mormon butterfly, bid him adieu

The salamander commands his salad fast
The slothful newt is always finishing last
The lizard climbs the wall and hangs on ceilings
The chameleon lives on potato peelings.

my little dog, is the kind who will whine
and my kitty cat is too divine
but cameleopard, well... he's sublime

The gopher ran across the road
While the ground hog goes underneath to unload
The praire dog loves to dig
And the marmot dances the jig

Python, Poodle, Peacock, Peafowl

A Python crawled up a tree
The poodle stopped to take a pee
The peacock fanned out all its feathers
And the peafowl hates the winter weather.
