Striped

Zebras and tigers and lemurs’ long tails Have stripes both distinctive and cool, As well as some convicts in old-fashioned jails Who wear black and white stripes as a rule. The American flag and a barbershop pole Both have candy-candy stripes white and red, While some p.j.’s and blankets and sheets have the goal To add stripes that will jazz up your bed. Lots of clothing is striped – shirts and sweaters and socks In all colors, both vibrant and plain, For in nature or otherwise, stripiness rocks – Sporting some, much attention you’ll gain.
