ON THE SNAIL







The Slow and Slippery
Snail
Slides upon its Shell and
Tail
Across an Endless
Floor
For an Hour or
More
But it has no reason to go
Fast
Because its Abode isn't that
Vast.

On the Kangaroo

The jumping
kangaroo
Does not
sing or moo
But it can really
box
And will knock off your
socks.
The mother's roomy
pouch
Is for her baby
A very cozy
couch.

SMYROS



The moray eel
Doesn't eat veal
But otherwise will
Consume any meal
That is found within
Its watery room.
Today I have learned
That the moray eel
Has another jaw
Behind its first jaw
With which to gorge food
Down into its maw.
The moray eel isn't a very pretty fish
But we all can't look the way we wish.
It has quite a scary
Face
But so does the human
Race.

BLINDING LIGHT


Should the light leave
My line of sight
And I lost my
Sense of seeing
My life would be
A thing of fright.
If the moon that is in the sky
Should disappear from my eye
The earth would become
A darksome kingdom.
If what I hear
Should disappear
The silent sound
Would quite resound.
If I lost my sense of touch
I would not feel very much.
Let me embrace this life
And not this kind of strife.
