Snark
Keeper Weeper
Early Dawning,
Out his door
He skipped
One morning,
On his porch
Found a basket,
With the label
Take good care,
Keeper Weeper
Looked in basket,
There he found
A big surprise,
Sitting inside
Quite contented,
Looking up
Enormous grin,
Could it be
The last remaining,
Famous both
In verse and prose,
Lost forgotten
How could it be,
Was this the last
The one and only,
Last surviving
Elusive
Snark.
Tony

Note. The Snark was the subject of a poem by Lewis Carroll written in 1874 called "The Hunting of the Snark", which they never found. |
