Aerial Assault

If pigs could fly it wouldn’t be good You’d have to go out with a brolly Wear Wellington boots and waterproof suits Life wouldn’t be happy or jolly There’d be danger around every corner You’d think in your car you’d be safe But unless you’re under some cover Either you or your car they will strafe The Towns would be dirty and smelly And slippery in the extreme We’d have to employ a small army In an effort to keep the streets clean Now don’t you get all of a fluster For the scientists haven’t yet found The means of piggy propulsion Or getting the beasts off the ground If one day this nightmare should happen It won’t come as any surprise If they manage to get piggies airborne Then the price of bacon will rise © John W Fenn 17-01-2009

Another winner! If this is your style, have a look at Lee Leon's sheepie poems - I'm sure you'll like them. Of course, if pigs do fly it will be because they eat beans ... jet propulsion!
