Zebra Zest!


For the little ones.
ZEBRA ZEST!

A zebra went out walking and on the road, by chance,
He met his friend Zucchini and he asked her for a dance.
They danced the Zigzag polka from side to side to side,
And they laughed so much they both fell down and cried.


The zebra looked so handsome with zinc upon his nose,
And Zucchini was a lady who was not inclined to doze.
With zest and zeal they hopped around enjoying all  the fun
Until they were so dizzy that their zips all came undone!


So, we'll dance the Zigzag polka, we'll dance it while we may.
We'll dance to the Zigzag music till we're crazy!
We'll dance the Zigzag polka, dance it night and day!
But we can't do the Zigzag polka if we're lazy!

    Too many zzzs made me sleepy ;).

    I don't know how you do it, but keep on coming up with those clever rhymes and DO get them published. You could become our rich blogger.

    Great poem again and I don't know how you do it, but it's so funny! Thank you.

    So you also saw these falls in Queensland! It's true if you had your cataracts you can see a lot better. I had my eyes also "done".They see much better now.

    That was a quite delightfully silly rhyme! LOL!

    It reminds me of the old-fashioned rhymes in the books of my childhood. Ah, the nostalgia!
