Don Johnson Poet Rhyme

Nasty Aussies

Nasty Aussies

Nasty critters do we have 
Under the Southern Cross
Deadly Funnel Web Spider
Deadly Blue ringed octopus

Box jelly fish might get you         (deadly)
Great white shark eat you too    (nice fella)
Our Redback spider nips a bit    (burns like hot coal)
And Possums in the loo               (toilet)

A Pelican will blurt on you   (whitewash)
Cane toads come in the house  (poison glands on back)
Sand goannas sucking eggs 
Roo’s will punch you out

Pussycats they are perhaps
Paralyss tick gets you
Short arm snake attacks, gets slaps 
The Shielas run off too

Don Johnson 15-may-11
