He’s not a real doctor.
I thought you should know.
But you’ve probably figured that out.
The whole idea
seemed rather silly to me
But he urged, just hear me out!

First, was the cat
Always pawing and scratching
Making a mess of the house
And what’s even worse
Is that cat in his hat
Not once tried to catch a mouse!

Red Fish and Blue
they are here too
But kept in a separate bowl
I’m not sure why,
I don’t care to ask
The answer not worth the trouble

Books stacked high,
a rainbow of knowledge
tottering towards the sky.
As I cook, and I clean
One Fish and Two
jump up, trying to fly.

“The books, the books,” he shouts in a flurry
As I rush to steady the stack
With him for my husband
I’m never quite sure
just what will happen next!

You should’ve been around last Christmas time
Don’t worry, not a thing is missing
That green furry thing
is quite old in his age and
came by the doc’s inviting





They sat around talking
who’s who in the world
over a cup of tea

but what the doc wanted
was the mean thing
as the star
in his new movie

Then there was Horton
A big surprise, he found on one of his trips
He wasn’t so bad, it was just his size
That caused the disturbance

But don’t pity me
I married the man
And oh the places we went.
Just for the record,
When Sam made us brunch,
It made my stomach quite sick.

The day we met
I knew he was special
Doodling all the time
“Those really are quite good”
I mentioned to him
After that, he made me his wife

He told me one day
what he wanted to do
write for kids
across the globe
I stood by his side
and what can I say
he’s done a really great job!
