Doctor, doctor, how do you do? <br />Come and meet Skippy, the gray kangaroo. <br />Skippy and Joey, the one in the pouch, <br />Joey fell out and she now has an ouch. <br /> <br />Would you be kind Sir, <br />and fix Joey's ouch? <br />In the future she'll mind her, <br />once back in the pouch. <br /> <br />So the doc had a look <br />at the terrible gash. <br />Fifteen stitches it took <br />but was done in a flash. <br /> <br />Since the cut was positioned <br />in the Joey's pouch flap, <br />the smart doctor envisioned <br />that there would be no gap. <br /> <br />So he put in a zipper <br />for the future offspring. <br />Mum exclaimed 'What a ripper', <br />'twas a wonderful thing.<br /><br />Herbert Nehrlich<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-ouch-children/
