blue cuckoos & blew kazoos
a kangaroo or two
pygmy shrews in gypsy trews
& gnus from timbuktu
silverware & silver hair
a weasel legionnaire
thunder hares in underware
& tupperware tongue bears
rubber zen & mother hens
a squint of feathered phlegm
fountain pens in mountain men
& ink in winter wrens
barking dogs & marching clogs
a catalogue of frogs
spartan hogs in tartan togs
& song's the signet gobs
orangeade & collonades
a swirl of murmur's maid
faraway in marmalade
& gargles snake the glade
twiddle nose & twinkle toes
a row of dominoes
swanning on in river flows
- or so the vision glows
