The Booraffe - A Nonsense Poem For Children

the Walrus is an odd looking animal
but not as odd looking as the Booraffe
who has the tusks of a Walrus

the Anteater is an odd looking animal
but not as odd looking as the Booraffe
who has the head of an Anteater
and the tusks of a Walrus

the Narwhal is an odd looking animal
but not as odd looking as the Booraffe
who has the horn of a Narwhal
the head of an Anteater
and the tusks of a Walrus

the Giraffe is an odd looking animal
but not as odd looking as the Booraffe
who has the neck of a Giraffe
the horn of an Narwhal
the head of an Anteater
and the tusks of a Walrus

the Zebra is an odd looking animal
but not as odd looking as the Booraffe
who has the body of a Zebra
the neck of a Giraffe
the horn of a Narwhal
the head of an Anteater
and the tusks of a Walrus

the Crocodile is an odd looking animal
but not as odd looking as the Booraffe
who has the tail of a Crocodile
the body of a Zebra
the neck of a Giraffe
the horn of a Narwhal
the head of an Anteater
and the tusks of a Walrus

the Chicken is an odd looking animal
but not as odd looking as the Booraffe
who has the legs of a Chicken
the tail of a Crocodile
the body of a Zebra
the neck of a Giraffe
the horn of a Narwhal
the head of an Anteater
and the tusks of a Walrus

the Frog is an odd looking animal
but not as odd looking as the Booraffe
who has the feet of a Frog
the legs of a Chicken
the tail of a Crocodile
the body of a Zebra
the neck of a Giraffe
the horn of a Narwhal
the head of an Anteater
and the tusks of a Walrus

not that you can see his feet
because the Booraffe wears slippers
just like Grandad's
