Elephants, wise in their fame,
Call each other by a unique name.
For humans, quite sly,
They likely imply,
A dirty nickname with no shame.
An old train driver, eighty-one
An old train driver, eighty-one,
Still worked though her race was near run.
With one foot in the grave,
She still felt quite brave,
But perhaps it’s time she was done.
A brown bear with a taste for a spree
A brown bear with a taste for a spree,
Kept breaking in homes for a tea.
He’d sneak in at night,
Cause quite a fright,
Not a black bear, but bold as could be.
In Denmark, they fear spicy bites
In Denmark, they fear spicy bites,
For it leads to uncomfortable nights.
With peppers, they quit,
To avoid liquid shits,
And stick to their mild food delights.
A monkey in North Carolina once fled,
A monkey in North Carolina once fled,
With mischief and chaos ahead.
But he found his old mate,
In a joyful twist of fate,
And threw poop just to say, “I’m not dead!”
There once was a man, such a brute,
There once was a man, such a brute,
Whose meaty obsession took root.
He’d feast without measure,
But faced a tough pleasure,
For his loo visits were quite the dispute.
There once was a goldfish, you see,
There once was a goldfish, you see,
Found on a doctor’s lawn, a mystery,
Seconds from death it lay,
But went viral that day,
In the U.K., a fish’s tale of glee!
There once was a couple so keen,
There once was a couple so keen,
Magnet fishing, a curious scene,
In the depths they did delve,
A safe they did shelve,
With over $100,000, a dream!
Hurricane season is here, brace and hold tight,
Hurricane season is here, brace and hold tight,
Winds howl, waves crash, it’s quite a fright,
With a doozy on the way,
Storms dance and sway,
Stay safe, prepare, through the day and the night!
In a Finnish library, a tale of delight
In a Finnish library, a tale of delight,
An overdue book, returned in the night,
84 years it did roam,
To its rightful home,
A tome so long, what a sight!
