Animal Heaven
By AJ O’Brien.
Where dogs ride little green bikes
and take kittens for a ride,
and when the sun goes down
Lions and deer lay side by side.
Where every Friday foxes gather,
along with hamsters and chickens,
upon a cloud of silken white
and discuss the works of Charles Dickens.
Where bats have 20/20 vision
and giraffes never get sore throats,
Grizzly bears wear nose pegs
when dancing with smelly goats.
Where horses only ever trot
and snakes are never mean,
all frogs have a leg on each corner
and cows sing in fields of green.
Where all the ants are named Eric
and ducks wear little blue hats,
dolphins sunbathe on the beach
and penguins are super acrobats.
Where tigers drink red wine
and spiders weave webs of gold,
fish swim and are never caught
and polar bears never feel cold.
Animal Heaven is where
when their time has come,
all God’s creatures go
and do nothing, but have fun.
