I have heard how their poop has something to do with healing because they can't digest all the leaves they eat, but it comes out changed. Thanks for sharing this one with us. I like to watch vet programs on TV, learning so much about animals and their illnesses. Sara K

Hello Hilda. Thanks for reading about poor Joey. Let's make that a mantra: "Soup yes, poop No!" I am pleased you stopped by. :)

Well for a bad loose tummy the Greeks eat totally plain rice soup which has been boiled in water and which has thickened from the rice boiling in it for so long. When you serve it you squeeze as much lemon in it as you can take and add only a pinch of salt. I works, I promise. Now as for the young Koala bear named Joey, who was fed poop soup, and then became handsome and showy, it seems that poop soup works as well for Koala bears as Rice soup for the Greeks, but never the two should get confused. Good Laugh Linda my friend awesome Limerick. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer. Jennifer.

Dear Linda, I need this LOL, and it was a very charming limerick. I thought about the song by Neil Diamond, Porcupine Pie! Thank you for the charm and laughter. 0 Blessings, My Friend, Daniel

And factual Jerry. Apparently, it has something to do with digestion. Thanks for visiting! :)
