Purely For Fun Poem by ivor or ivor.e hogg

Osbert the owl a wise old bird.
Considered history absurd.
He much preferred geography
and who was I to disagree
He knew quite well which he preferred.

A Golden Eagle discontent
discovered quite by accident
That lady eagles were prepared
if they could find a bird who dared
To spare time to experiment

A family of harvest mice.
Decided that it would be nice
To leave the fields and live indoors
which was great mistake of course.
A cat controlled that paradise.

Peter the parrot happily
would use foul language constantly
He did not know what his words meant
and thus he sinned without intent
So we forgave him readily.

Swiftly runs the female cheetah
its extremely hard to beat her
When she pursues a currant bun
I’s something which she does for fun.
Because all cheetahs are meat eaters.
