2 Peas Or Not 2 P's . That Is the Question ?

I saw a family of killer whales
In the Irish Sea 
South-East of Wales .
With radar fins and splashing tails 
   Giant masters of the sea .

Free Willie's dream was Hollywood
He made a splash
And that was good
But then again , we knew he could
   But , no Oscar-winner , he .

The family group , all had names 
There was Jonah , Jerry
Jess and James
Zoe , Chloe and Sue were dames
   And Bono swam like God .

Bertha and Babs with flashing eyes
Jack and Jill could synchronize
With Pete and Paul , we could sympathize
   The only " 2 P's in the Pod " ..

While I saw a family of mammals: Dylan croaking when he sings, Elton John with a gap between his front teeth, Daniel O'Donnell singing like an angel, Kristofferson badly needing a haircut and doing something with his sartorial shortcoming, Willie needing to replace his guitar with its big hole and washing his ponytailed hair and hm, Freddie Boy prancing like a peacock with his killer movie star look!!! LOL
