I may be a fool but I did go to school
And I did learn a thing or two.
I know for a fact [not in the abstract]
That zebras are striped and they chew.
I also know that they actually grow
In Africa far far away
So why do our roads have copious loads
Of crossings for them if they stray?
.
(Not to mention the pelicans – so I won’t. Lo,TG Ed)

You are really quite the poet. It brings tears to my eyes!
I feel like crying myself sometimes …… *stifles sob*
if a zebra crossed on a zebra crossing wouldn’t they get knocked down as they would be camouflaged wouldn’t they??
(according to Wiki there are Toucan and Puffin crossings too)
Exactly ….. the whole concept is ridiculous …..
then my comment is in the right place then??
As always young 70’s …… the phrase “hitting the nail on the head” was invented especially for you ….. except when you make typos of course ….
would that be ‘knitting a hail on the shed?’
Oh dear ….. here we go again ……
You’re on quite a roll lately daddyp
Am I? – I hope it’s still edible ……..
Have you been over-playing ‘Animal Crossing’ on the Gamecube again?
Lovely poem though… have you ever thought of putting music to them and perhaps creating some youtube videos to entertain folks with?
(runs away before the objects Penfold throws can reach me…)
Tee hee …… [Penfold can throw a long way but you're probably safe].
I’ve never played Animal Crossing …… is it good?
dear Fraccy ……………noooooooooooooooooooooooooo
…. oh …… you’re quite keen as well then ….. *looks thoughtful*
