English poem
My Animals
HAVE you seen my little animals Shut in a paper house?-- There’s a donkey and a camel With a kittie and a mouse;
There’s a doggie and an elephant, A lion and a bear, All huddled in together, And they never seem to care!
O I’m very, very hungry And I think I’d like to eat The donkey and the lion And the elephant for meat;
They are all made out of crackers, And if Mamma says I may, I’ll eat a half a bag of them And give the rest away.
