A poem by Clarence James Dennis

The Unsociable Wallaby

________________________________________________
Title:     The Unsociable Wallaby
Author: Clarence James Dennis [More Titles by Dennis]

Willie spied a wallaby hopping through the fern--
Here a jump, here a thump, there a sudden turn.
Willie called the wallaby, begging him to stop,
But he went among the wattles with a
flip,
flap,
flop!

 

* * *

I wonder whether, all together, you and I and father
Could eat a bun that weighs a ton. I'd like to try it, rather.

I want to know why roosters crow at dawning of the day.
Is it because they cannot think of something else to say?

* * *


[The end]
