Animals
I love animalsOf every shape and sizeThere are none I despise How I longTo have pet dogsI even want hogs Send me felinesAnd bunnies tooNo animals I eschew A pet hippoWould be niceTigers suffice A dolphinIs greatA chihuahua cleans his plate A grizzly bearIt’s so funDon’t shoot it with a gun by Zachary Uram(C) 2025
