Introduction

Have you ever wished you could be an animal even for one day?
This is a short poem about that very wish!

Manimal

I'd like to be a dolphin
and swim in open seas,
I'd like be a bear
and steal honey from the bees,
I'd like to be a highland stag
upon the mountain top,
I'd like to be a kangaroo
just so I could hop.

I'd like to be a rabbit
and dig a great big hole,
I'd like to be a little fish
swimming in a shoal,
I'd like to be a cat,
all curled up on the bed,
I'd love to be a seagull,
I'd shit on someone's head!
