Have You Seen My Carflufflemoose

I wish to find my Carflufflemoose
He's smaller than a duck
With a long neck like a goose
Please tell me yes 
Oh tell me please
Have you seen one disguised as a trampolease.
He hops like a bunny
Bouncing quite high
A truly talented  Carflufflemoose
He can fly high in the sky
To tell you the truth 
You may be wondering why
His belly is so fat and he has purple eyes

He might be a bird
Though not one very wise 
An owl like demenor 
In parrot disguise!
With yellow contacts in those purple eyes
if you want to catch him offer him fries
Once I'm reunited I'll give you a prize 
Look real careful
He loves riding a red caboose 
He's really quite harmless 
Still he shouldn't be on the loose
After all he's a Carflufflemoose!


I put away my Dark Suess and came up with this one.
I hope you and Abbie enjoy it Casarah.

Richard, Great use of descriptive language. I think it would be great to see his picture, or have kids read the story and draw their image to post and help find him. Congratulations, Barbara
