Pet names
This is a work in progress. I keep adding stuff. There are a few red herrings and the rhythm is all over the place in parts, but I'll sort it.
If you Percy verevolf you might make some sense of it
Pet names
Mable
Is a marten, sorry, sable,
Whereas Martin is a swallow,
Not a martin at the gable.
Do you follow?
Am I able
To entitle a gorilla
With the prenomen of Cilla?
Blackbird Thora heard
About Brook trout -
She spouted
Rainbow words…
I doubt a
Camouflaged young zebra
Ever deigned to be dubbed Debra.
And is Bill a ‘bomination
For a penguin’s appellation
As he looks so like a waiter?
Paula polar bear
Will surely know
And so
I’ll ask her –
Later…
Yes, I
Think only a
Finicky
Long-necked
Giraffe
Could cynically
Say ‘Heck,
Gustaf’s
Too short for me!’
Let’s see
What names we
Think of now:
Jake snake, Zak yak -
What rhymes with sow?
Please tell me how
While delving deep,
The maggot Margot
Seems to know
Where every body goes.
Suppose
That Molly mole
Could dig the soul
Of Nat King Cole?
Ex-factory farm stock
Simon cow ’ll
Milk her dry –
As Angela tarantula
Fine-dines with
Fi, the fly.
Georgina the hyena’s
Getting meaner -
Even Rog the blind dog’s seen her
Hurling evil epithets
At Margaret the marmoset –
‘Though Leo leopard is her pal!
Here’s Sal,
The animal
Of unknown species,
Rolling faeces.
John-Paul beetle’s feet’ll
Roll some too -
Perhaps someday their names
‘ll be the same when they proclaim,
‘I do’.
Says Barney barn owl,
‘T’wit t’whom
It may concern:
Poor Bernie tern’s
Sojourning in a zoo…’
My perfect pet,
Mia sparrow’s vetting
Rock the rook while
Not forgetting
Stone the crow.
Hey, did you know
That
Turtle Myrtle races
Gail the snail,
While Phil, the killer whale
Puts Dolph the dolphin through his paces,
Snapping at his tail?
I pale
If
Antelope Penelope
Can't be found where she should be -
Quick!
Look for Brian,
The lion!
