The Kangaroo´s Courtship



"Oh will you be my wallaby?"
Asked Mr. Kangaroo.
"For we could find so very many
Jumping things to do.
I have a pocket two feet wide
And deep inside,
My dear, you´d ride...
Oh, come and be my bouncing bride,
My Valentine, my side by side.

Love is like a Cabbage

Love is like a cabbage
Divided into two,
The leaves I give to others,
The heart I give to you.
