A poem by Oliver Herford

A Penguin

________________________________________________
Title:     A Penguin
Author: Oliver Herford [More Titles by Herford]

THE Pen-guin sits up-on the shore
And loves the lit-tle fish to bore;
He has one en-er-vat-ing joke
That would a very Saint pro-voke:
"The Pen-guin's might-i-er than the Sword-fish";
He tells this dai-ly to the bored fish,
Un-til they are so weak, they float
With-out re-sis-tance down his throat.







[The end]
