Poem

Mark Clarke was the gentlest man of Denmark 
Yet considered by all a most unlikely patriarch
He was proud being Noah’s apprentice on the ark

Mark was in charge of ensuring all the animals did embark 
Two by two in harmony, elephant, giraffe, tiger, and aardvark 
Shared the gameplan with the many types of whale and shark  

Ensured every bird was onboard, especially the skylark
Mark’s wondrous inventory was classified by icon and footmark
And sometimes in the margin he would jot a special remark
Hoping no one would notice he found neither unicorn nor snark 

For weeks torrential rains made the sky darkest dark
They prayed for the rainbow, that long-awaited coloured arc       
When the rains finally subsided they looked for the closest park
Everyone had cabin fever and were ecstatic to disembark

Rowdiness of meow, oink, purr, caw, growl, snarl and bark 
Plans were soon ongoing to celebrate with a feisty spark
Evaluating the damage up and down and all around  Hark!
Mark said Yeah, that’s gonna leave quite a watermark
