Zebra the Herbivore

Zebra was reading up on other foods
He had heard that veggies put you in good moods
Grasses are what we eat his father said.
Put down that book and go to bed.

Zebra was fascinated by the diet stuff.
He read about sweet sugars, sure enough.
I would like some pie and cake, and maybe meat.
You already have plenty of marvelous grasses to eat!

Come on Dad, give me some new stuff, okay?
His Daddy bought him some bakery stuff that day.
Zebra did not like any of it, and guess what, hark!
He went back to devouring leaves, twigs, plants and bark.
