Rhyming with Tarzan

Swinging in the trees like Tarzan,

thru the woods faster than cars can;

a flying squirrel passed by me

as rapid as eternity.

Perhaps you didn’t want to know

just how fast squirrels can go.

Hawks who have a tail-wind breeze

travel even faster than these.

Even if a jungle man

swings just as fast as he can

he is sure to be left behind

by creatures of another kind.

And, the pride which he swallers

hurts so much that he hollers.


Walt Abbott 5--8-2011
