There once was a place where the townspeople were formal they made fun of people who didn't act "normal" The loyal, royal cow didn't like that the townspeople wouldn't bow The scary, hairy bear didn't like that the townspeople would stare The teeny, tiny mice didn't like that the townspeople weren't nice The swirly, whirly bird didn't like that the townspeople acted absurd! One day a wise old owl came to town and asked the townspeople to settle down The wise old owl made a decree; "The townspeople should be nice to everybody!" "There are people afoot that act different than you, but they are still people, and deserve respect, too!" The townspeople realized that the wise old owl was keen, The townspeople felt bad that they were being so mean. The townspeople's hearts filled with love that was hearty, and decided to throw everyone a party! Thr loyal, royal cow liked that the townspeople would bow! The scary, hairy bear Liked that the townspeople would stare! The teeny, tiny mice liked that the townspeople were nice! as for the the swirly, whirly bird.... the townspeople's friendship, was preferred! The End
