Three Fables
33
Teacher Goose told Piglet: “Please,
write on the board your 33’s!”
Piglet went, but stood stock still.
“Ready then? Write what you will.”
Piglet stood there feeling his worst,
“I just don’t know which 3 goes first!”
The Plane
In a plane in the clouds so high,
some read; some sleep –at least they try.
A pup is playing with a ball;
it hits a piglet, pink and small.
So the pig says, “It’s a long ride.
Stretch your legs and play outside!”
Parachute
This little Piggy went to the store
to buy a parachute and nothing more.
The Stork clerk said, full of pride,
“This will give you a wonderful ride.
Like all our goods, it’s guaranteed.
We stand behind our product, indeed!
If it doesn’t work as it is tasked,
we will exchange it, no questions asked.”
