Pumpkin hill
In pigtails
Overkill
And some weed
In the back
Growing beanstalk

It is not everyday
You see ostrich crew
Arrive for your order
At the Drive-Thru,
Or have zebras peek in
To ensure you are pleased
Beating deer to the chase
To customers’ ease.

For me who lengthy rhymes adore
So instead of words to doff
I’ll celebrate with six times four.

And yet he sure looks to me
Like Smokey Bear’s evil cousin
Holding fires to be.

Got your boot
And the ptuk
Stole your truck,
It is time to call
A glonky
To clean up
This jabberwocky.

Surely all would admit
Something here does not fit
King or not
No one ought
To require this bed
For their camped royal head.

There is something quite delish
In the droll smile of a dish
That has climbed above all others
To achieved its broadcast wish.
