Poem
Barely Bear! Today, barefooted I walked behind a bear. Not behind just any old bear, But behind a bear, whose behind was bare!! And barely steps behind the bear - This is the bear with the bare behind, Followed two more bears with bare behinds! Had they all three worn their fur threadbare? Or was it from the bearing of their forebears? But when I saw three bears with bare bear behinds, It was barely bearable! In fact quite unbearable! So to cover the bare bear behinds, and dignify their bearing, I gave them underwear to cover their bare behinds! And made it warmer for three bare bear behinds! With the bears behinds covered, I bear In mind, when behind bears with bare behinds That although the bare bear behinds Are covered by underwear, they are still bear behinds! Though it makes it more bearable to walk behind! Better than walking behind bare bear behinds! As dawn did break, the Cock did crow, “Morning is here”, don’t you know? But the farmer not a bit impressed, aimed his gun and its trigger pressed! Now silence reigns as never before, And late is that Cock for evermore! The lightning roared, the thunder flashed, Pig and chicks were shaken When next there came another flash, We got some eggs and bacon! The Gnu is not a horse my friends, and neither is the zebra. But should it be, I swear to thee, it would be a cause celebre`! There once was a woman called Eve, Who kept many things up her sleeve. But the best of them all, Which made poor Adam fall, Was kept, where you’d never believe! The Queen said she gave a full pardon, To a criminal old and hardened: But ere his sentence was stopped, He’d already been topped: Was pushing up crops in the garden You need to be aware of the art, Of putting a horse in a cart. For should you do it wrong, It won't be very long, Before you return to the start! January 20th, 2017.
