The Jungle Husband

 Dearest Evelyn, I often think of you
Out with the guns in the jungle stew
Yesterday I hittapotamus
I put the measurements down for you but they got lost in the fuss
It's not a good thing to drink out here
You know, I've practically given it up dear.

Tomorrow I am going alone a long way
Into the jungle.
 It is all grey
But green on top
Only sometimes when a tree has fallen
The sun comes down plop, it is quite appalling.

You never want to go in a jungle pool
In the hot sun, it would be the act of a fool
Because it's always full of anacondas, Evelyn, not looking ill-fed
I'll say.
 So no more now, from your loving husband Wilfred.
