in the land of hinter
where it’s always winter
there lived a ‘polar koala bear’
though he was fair dinkum
feared the weather would sink’m
he was none the worse for the wear
worse for the ‘wear’?
that’s funny, i swear!
for the koala residing in hinter
was only a koala
but a tricky ol’ fella
what he’d ‘wear’ was a white coat during winter
but the coat was indeed polar
from a white bear he stole’er
with a slug of lead and voila!
now, polar bears, like elephants
keep note of such ill events
now the brother of the white coat wears koala!

ABOUT THE POET ~
I live with my wife and young son in N. Ireland. I've spent much of my life in Thailand, where we were all born (I, of my Irish father and American mother). I like to write, I have several novels self published -- mostly science fiction -- and some poetry. My poetry tends to be humorous, some limericks, silly rhymes, parodies of Mother Goose, etc., though I have some of a more serious nature, including some haiku.
