Oh dear, what can the matter be?
I need a bit of help, you see ...
A furry chum, quite unexpected,
Is feeling sour and dejected.
This is my old friend, Dear Platty,
Very kind, but kind of bratty ...
Always squawking like a duck,
About the bill with which he's stuck.
I told him that it's grand, unique!
The special-est of special beaks!
That any critter with fuzzy frill,
Is well-endowed, with such a bill.
For with that snout - beyond compare,
He's such a special creature, rare!
Still ... I need help with this old wuss,
To place a smile ... on Platty's puss.
