Monkey’s Uncle

written during a slow period of life to no-one in particular

If ever fish were made to sing,
Or birds could swim as well as wing,
Or spiders served at meat;
If ever turtles taught at school,
Or eagles learned the Golden Rule,
Or packèd-rats were neat;
Should lizards learn to hoola-hoop,
Or snakes grow arms and paratroop,
Or ants admit defeat;
Then man will might his manners learn,
His fortune maybe work to earn,
And life will be complete.
