Caught In Charlotte's Web - Nursery Rhyme

Wilbur's piggy neighbor
had noted his favor
and anger had started to stir,

But Wilbur uses words
so I'll sing like the birds
but his hums sound more like a slur,

So sad was Cadbury
who was no canary
no singer talents that there were,

So mad he had noted
a tune had not floated
so crazed he became a monster.

This fairy-tale means, Do not teach a pig to sing,
because it cannot sing, and it annoys the pig.
