My Scranimals


Dinosaurange

 

Here is the dinosaurange,

you're welcome to ride on his back.

I'll warn you it's really quite scary,

but it's better than being a snack.

While that dinosaurange is romping about,

I'd really advise you to stifle that shout.

There are other dinosauranges near,

surely you wouldn't want them to hear.

if they do, they'll pluck you from your ride.

There'll be no way to save your hide.

From the dinosauranges crowded 'round,

others near will hear many a sound.

Of scrunching and munching-­

That'll be you-

I told you you shouldn't go there.

Hey! What's that? A shoe?

 

 

Girraffern

 

 the girraffern, with it's shades of green,

is very very rarely seen

as it blends in with the trees,

a glimpse of it is hard to seize.

Do not try to eat this plant,

for though it's horns are the size of an ant,

they hurt when they go down your throat

(this has been tested on a goat).

The seeds are orange, the coat is green.

The greenest fur ever seen

 

 

Carrotter

 

Happily floating down the river,

the carrotter,

paws out and tail a'-quiver,

Leafy whiskers and veggie tail,

this cuddly creature is setting sail.

Off down the river, and out of sight, the river gets smaller,

It sure looks tight!

Out to the Ocean, the carrotter goes,

but where he ends up at,

 

nobody knows.
