Peculiar Pets

By Sean McKintosh

 

A zebra with spots instead of stripes, 

Peculiar I say…

However, we should not stereotype.

An artic wolf who hates the cold,

Peculiar I say…

Acted out and behaved extra bold. 

A dog who thinks he is a cat, 

Peculiar I say…

He twists and turns like an acrobat!

I saw a tiger who had pink fur,

Pculiar I say…

He got scared when he saw a bear!

A monkey that’s to nervous to climb,

Peculiar I say…

He stays on the floor all the time. 

A spider with only two legs, 

Peculiar I say…

She also lays glowing blue eggs!

I once saw a legged snake, 

Who ate some steak,

Peculiar I say…

This is the story of my encountered strange pets,

All while I was eating a baguette!
