Annual Marsupial Luncheon

Marsupial luncheon was a huge success
We had enough food with a plausible guess
Kangaroo baby made an enormous food mess
We did not help mama clean it, I must confess.

It’s all in her pouch the koala said.
She is embarrassed. Her face is quite red.
Opossum did not reply. She was playing dead.
All marsupials were amply and adequately fed.

Wow, this is a good one...so amusing. You have a way of making the animals come alive! Another one for your children's book!

I love your gift of humor in all things. This should be in a children's poetry book. :)Paulette
