I have a guinea pig named Gizmo
Whose antics made everyone go "Oh, no!"
He'd run through the house
Like a tiny, furry mouse
And leave poop chaos wherever he'd go!...

St Paddy’s day Guinea pig is loud singing again
The foam from his beer is dripping down from his chin
He seems to be a little inebriated, I think I dare say.
He gives me the wing and says “Happy St Paddy’s day!”...

Soft fur, gentle squeak
Curled up in a cozy ball
Guinea pig happiness

Tiny paws, bright eyes
Nibbling on fresh veggies
Playful little friend

Snuggle close, content
Warm fuzz against my chest
Guinea pig love flows...

Gizmo, fluffy ball,
Squeaks and hops around his pen,
Loves his veggies all.

Cute and chubby cheeks,
Guinea pig with lively squeaks,
Brings me joy and peaks.

Gizmo, little guy,
Snuggles close, his bright eyes shine,
My piggy, oh so spry....

I will be your guinea pig I say.
What can I do for you today?
Wash the toilets? Clean the floor?
Paint that wall? Refinish your door?

I have arrived to work in a merry way.
Ready to have an absolutely fine Monday.
Just do any extra lunch duty, okay?
I wish I was back in home in every way....

Dear Santa, I want a guinea pig,
One that can handle his sup.
I'd like one that can overeat,
And doesn't sleep belly up.

And, Dear Santa, our toilet won't flush,
It's really quite a wonder,
So could you bring for my mom,
A brand new toilet plunger?

Mummy

'Mummy' such a simple word, I used to hear it often.
'Mummy' a mellifluous sound which causes hearts to soften.
'Mummy, can I have a cat or guinea pig instead?'
'Mummy, can you read to me then tuck me up in bed?'
'Mummy' ; such a heartfelt word but now the time has come
To recognise the passing years for now I'm 'good old Mum!'...

Heavy Ticket
What a magnificent animal. 
The seven foot long guinea pig.
She was the same standing.
With the bite of a tiger.

I don't want one as a pet.
She would eat so many carrots.
And greens and seeds.
Above all else needing to be free.
One day I must write.
Then dream a dream.

What were you like?
So magnificent and unique.
I think of you......

He's funny, he's cute,
He wears a weird suite,
He giggles and chatters and talks to me,
I think he's saying, 'Hello Phoe',
His eyes are red,
His nose; two little black dots on his sweet little head,
His ears two fluffy clouds,
He is very loud,
He doesn't want my sister,
He doesn't want my brother,
He only wants me,
And definitely no other,
He's a Guinea pig,
Called Hedwig....

fancy guinea pig Elvira wore a floral cap.
She danced a jig, a waltz and she sang a rap.
We were dizzy when we watched, had to take a nap.
She was a pretty thing who knew how to read a map.

We gave her instructions, and she showed us the way.
Michigan State University is there, and they do not play.
We were grateful to Elvira, whose eyelids were gray.
She led us to victory in sports every other Monday....

Purple Guinea Pig
Growl growl bite bite goes the guinea pig
As she rips out your fecking throat
The fierce guinea pig purple in colour
Not to be fecked with or name called
She'll hunt you down and kill ya!
And talks like a real American
The purple guinea pig who growls
Straight from the chest
Hear her and you're screwed
Get ready to be eaten
Purple guinea pig style!

My guinea pig
With the black and brown stripes
And the eyes big and black like space
And tiny little ears
That perk up when he hears the food come.

My guinea pig
Who sits on my lap
As I read, or just watch him
As he shifts tring to find a comfortable position
As he squeaks 
In happiness 
Or annoyance
Or a thousand other emotions

My guinea pig
Who eats all day
And all night
And when he's done
He eats some more...

Whacky? Perhaps but extremely powerful too.
He’s a guinea pig wizard from north Kalamazoo.
We have seen him turn the windows both pink and blue.
He has commanded a crow to fly in from the flue.

We call him Mr. Tibblets Tanglewood Tony Treble Clef Two.
He likes the whole name, he says we simply cannot overdue.
His power and might terrifies my brother and sister too.
He is heading this way, so I suggest you be your best you....
