Animal Stew

Alison Alligator eating artichokes on a ant hill,
     watching
     Beverly Bear floating on a cloud over there,
     which developed a leak,
     drenching
     Charlotte the twin headed elephant
     up to their knees,
     floating
     Danny the dingo swimming past.
     While watching,
      Eli the iguana,
     slithering over a leaf
     sharing a log,
     with Francis the frog looking over,
     as Gwenda the goose flew overhead
     into the gum tree,
     where,
     Helen the hermit had laid down her head,
     on
     Ivy the twinning snake,
     who was always late,
     slithered up the tree,
     to give
     Jay the monkey,
     who was feeling funky,
     a fright.
     she dropped a nut on,
     Karen the kite,
     who was in flight one starry night.
     As Lil the parrot continued to trill,
     while
     Marsha the mammoth grew quite still,
     to much noise was making her ill,
     gave her the shakes
     and 
     Nosey Nancy the ant came up out of her mound
     to see what was shaking the ground all around.
     Olive the ostrich bent all her knees,
     standing straight was making her sneeze!
     Then
      Penelope the porcupine trotted on by
     to keep an appointment with 
      Quirky the quill,
      she was the queen of everything,
      she was quite mean.
     pushing
     Ruth the rambling rabbit into,
     Silly sue who was a sea lion and lived in Sillyville,
     and lived there still.
     Alongside
     Terrible Tonya the Tonga tiger,
     who danced with,
     Uncelet Uris who came from the north,
      because of to many Tonga dancers rolling tires back abd forth.
     Violet the vampire bat flew down to show
     Wilson Lucille the very large whale,
     how to stay out of jail.
     she had a tendency you see,
     to hang out with
     Xantus, the hummingbird,
     who lived on a yacht with a 
     Yak Zack ,
     and stole yogurt by the lot.
     Finally to tired to tired to chat anymore,
     Alison, Beverly, Charlotte, Danny, Eli, Francis, Gwenda, Helen, Ivy, Jay,
     Karen, Lil, Marsha, Nancy, Olive, Penelope, Quirky, Ruth, Sue, Tonya, Uris, Violet, Wilson Lucille, Xantus,  and Yak Zak
     fell asleep on the floor.
