Franzie, the monkey in the tree
Can’t see me
But then again, he’s not looking
Unnamed and uncounted millions of bees
traveling in a big dark cloud
Are buzzing too loud
I would tell them but they are not listening
Henry, the biggest pig in the pen
Is laughing and joking with his friends
Waiting to be fed
Tex the dog sitting on the log
Is barking at a frog
The frog barks back
A random bird is skirting on the breeze
But the second mouse gets the cheese
There’s a lesson in that
Yodel, my owl’s mood is foul
One of many reasons for his scowl
The late night flight was tiring
Vaca, my cow is studying a new method for chewing cud
He is not in a hurry - his life is good
Plus the pasture is verdant green and full
The rhyme in me mind goes on and on
The light in me window says here comes dawn
Tired over and hung out
Here comes sleep
