Catch a Weasel Asleep

Catch a Weasel Asleep Upon my word It all came true, Sky turned Green and Earth was blue, Fish didn’t swim but they could walk, Sheep wore hats and learnt to talk. Cockroach roamed six feet tall, Slaying dragons, for they are small, Eagles fell from pure green sky, Shed their wings could no longer fly. Fox strolls town during light of day, Greeting strangers, it’s just his way. Tiger’s tamed eating berry fruit, Rats attack men in pin stripe suit. Mankind turns human, honest and good, Walking land where giants stood. World is spinning upside down, Man, in the Moon bemoans and frown. Penguins wear trews by Louis Versace, Playing concert piano like Liberace. Ice caps melting flooding the land, Paupers and Porpoise go cap in hand. Life on Earth is in reverse, Pollution and noise only make things worse, If you ever catch a Weasel asleep, The end is nigh; time to weep.

What a wonderful read this was. Very entertaining with a not so subtle message. Excellent poetry, Kevin!
