BRONSON THE BEAVER BEAR-Limerick

Bronson was a beaver bear,
His species was really rare,
He built damns with logs,
Frightened cats and dogs,
A cave was his main lair.

He moved to Michigan from Wisconsin,
His body was a black bear,
His beaver head gave a scare,
He married a beaver bear named Johnson.

Dreaming of banana bread and a Saturday cartoon,

Then, they all dreamed ice cream was coming very, very soon.

JUNIOR THE SKUNK

Junior was a nasty skunk,
He followed me around like a goofy punk,
So, with bacon I would tease,
But, his bite gave me rabies,
If I don’t get to a doctor I fear that I’m sunk.

Junior the skunk feed on mice all the day,
He dug them up from holes where they quietly lay,
When a poor mouse yelled out "eek",
Startled Junior let out  a wreak,
That warned the other mice to scurry away.

WHEN THE SNOW BLOWS

When the snow blows and cold comes through your cracks,
You stuff newspaper in the holes to keep warm your shacks,
Shove up the stove with wood,
When it's red hot, it is good,
It is then time to wait 'till the frost bite attacks.

When the snow blows it makes hurt on my feet,
I run out of food and have nothing to eat,
And when the snow blows,
I'll have to cut off my toes,
But, at least I will have some fresh meat.

WILLY WITH FEW NEEDLES

There was a red pine tree named Willie,
He had few needles and looked silly,
All the other trees,
Did nothing but tease,
The near naked tree nick named Billy.

Willie was a red pine tree,
He grew real tall so he could see,
But, the great sacrifice,
Made things turn out not nice,
Willies needles poored down like a sea.
