The Incautious Goat

Once upon a time there was a goat

Who spied delicious tin down in a moat.

He jumped right in.

He could not swim.

And even worse for him, he could not float.

 

And then there was the time another goat 

Got pearls of wisdom stuck inside her throat. 

She baaaa’d and brayed 

But there they stayed. 

She never should have dinnered on a quote. 

 

                              

And then there was the time the hungry goat

Expounded on a soapbox, and I quote:

“Oh you dear friends of mine,

I thank you for your time.

Now, please ignore the sign and feed the goat!”
