What does the donkey bray about? <br />What does the pig grunt through his snout? <br />What does the goose mean by a hiss? <br />Oh, Nurse, if you can tell me this, <br />I'll give you such a kiss. <br />The cockatoo calls ‘cockatoo,’ <br />The magpie chatters ‘how d'ye do?’ <br />The jackdaw bids me ‘go away,’ <br />Cuckoo cries ‘cuckoo’ half the day: <br />What do the others say?<br /><br />Christina Georgina Rossetti<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/what-does-the-donkey-bray-about/
