One Coo Coo Moose
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
One coo coo Moose.
Thought easily to dupe.
Not an animal to perceive that smart!
One coo coo Moose.
Quick to be seduced.
And no one thinks a Moose,
Knows it looks like a fool.
Slowly moving through the woods.
Not to fear a Cougar.
Or a staring Bear on the loose,
Hoping to swim in a pool.
In someone's backyard to do.
Thought easy to trick and fool,
But few will see a Moose to choose...
An animal that's beautiful to behold.
A Moose is left alone.
On its own to roam.
Not too many antlers from a Moose,
Are displayed.
Hanging above mantels.
As if the Moose wanted it that way.
Some may have seen a Moose looking...
Coo coo.
But...
Few can say they're everywhere to dupe.
To fool!
Some may have seen a Moose looking...
Cool and coo coo.
But...
Few can say they're everywhere to dupe.
To fool!
'Uh...
What,
Is this poem really about?'
People!
How more obvious can that be?
Geeessshhh.
