LIBERTY EMPIRE APPLE YELLOW ENORMOUS
I can't tell you where my crazy mind was at this evening as I pondered the words, but I have an image of a very strange but loveable animal.

I hear a rumble in the jungle
It's coming very near
The sound of it's enormous
And I'm trying not to fear
Whatever it is that's coming
With an apple in its mouth
Has a silly curly tail and
a yellow arrow pointing south
It seems to smile right at me
Helps me relax a bit
Says its name is liberty
"why don't you come and sit?"
So I sit down there beside her
With that animal I don't know
We talk about the empire
And then it's time to go.

That was great. Made me chuckle!
I absolutely adore this piece! I'm one who love whimsy and this really came to life for me. You did a wonderful job. This is my favorite this week!
Thanks guys, I still can't quite believe I write it. I've obviously been reading Rachel a bit too much Rudyard Kipling
That made me and daughter smile :-)
Lol very clever!
You never expect poetry!
Very nice.
I do love a bit of nonsense. Only a sketch of the creature is missing. Now we'll all be left wondering what it looks like.
Cute.
Lovely poem, made me smile. Well done.
