A spiced-up children’s poem


The owl and the pussy cat went to sea

With a shamelessly shocking young shrew,

They said, ‘We agree that to do it with three

Could be far more exciting than two.’

They all of them swooned when the pussy cat crooned

A naughty but nautical song

And they sighed, ‘This is nice or, indeed, nice times thrice!’

As they frolicked and frisked all night long

Till the shrew shrewdly said, ‘We can never be wed,

No Turkey would deem it quite right,

And a fowl of the cloth would be fuming with wrath

If he knew of our capers tonight!’

So they settled as one for a lifetime of fun

And, when asked if they clicked as a crew,

They tittered, all three, and responded with glee,

‘Oh we do, yes we do, yes we do!’
