Best Mealtime Poems
Look at Brian the badger
Slinking through the grass
Sleeping Susan rabbit
Doesn't see him pass.
Hunting for his breakfast
Every single night
Brian's not very fussy
He simply wants a bite.
Finds a broken ladder,
Scratches on a rung,
At last he finds some breakfast
He licks it with his tongue!
Did that make you hungry?
Is this story real?
I guess you're looking forward
To tomorrow's meal?

Father, thank You for the food,
Help the kids [to] not be rude,
Thank You for vegetables and fruit,
Thank You for my Sunday suit.
(written by my firstborn son as a child)
After reading some of the poems
You simply must agree
That their is an abundance of some
Which would make a tasty tea
Seren's mice have multiplied
Along with Kim's rabbits you see
Sammy snake is overjoyed
Smacking his lips with glee
Cos a tasty meal is envisaged
Just one thing Sammy forgot
On board Noah's ark
Is Malcolm the mongoose.
He lays in wait for Sammy
Who decided he wasn't hungry
So the rabbits and the mice
Are safe for another day
(added by Mandy)
Then there are some deer
Just like Bambi you see
But keep an eye on the tigers
Because Bambi looks good for tea
What about the aardvark
With his pointy long nose
He might be sniffing for ants
But if he is hungry one never knows.
Come on write the next verse i will add it
In the middle of the new surgeon's lunch
OR experienced a patient crunch --
Doc set aside his meal
Growled, What a lousy deal --
Removed a liver from which he could munch
Lies and Love
Leaving lessens love
Lying ladies leave lastly
Lies linger lately
Mealtime
Minors mind manners
Mothers muffle most musings
Meals mingle morsels
Natural
Nomads never nest
Needing nothing normally
Nature nurses nil

A mantis so dapper and green,
Ordered takeout in gourmet scene.
He paid with a leaf,
Causing waiter great grief,
"Sir, we only take cash, you've been mean!"
