Puddin - Nursery Rhyme Potd 3-2-2023

Listen to poem:

What's that on the shoreline run, all amok "Is that a beaver?"Or incredibly furry duck?" Ponder they did Koala and Roo About a stranger, that came into view We must look closer said the two friends As they drew near, mud and dead ends In that very moment, it ate a frog Then ran back home, to the edge of the bog As they approached its eyes, sweet and somber What could its name be, they did ponder When in that moment, from out of its bill It said "pleased to meet you both. What a thrill! I'm not a beaver, duck, or a sourpuss Names Puddin mates. I'm a platypus! 2-28-2023

Thank you so much for sponsoring the contest Eve! I have many small children in my life and it was fun to explore a side of poetry that would allow me to involve them and connect with them on a deeper level. Quite frankly it was nice to let my inner kid out :) warmly A.S.
