If I Were A..............?

If I were a rabbit I would hop all around I would nibble carrots Without making a sound If I were a lion And even if I was full of might As I was defeated by an ant So I am on a vegetarian diet If I were a fish I will swim in the water I won’t dare come out Because then it will be hotter If I were a horse I would participate in races And secure the first place And look at happy faces If I were a giraffe I would have a view from the top But I am still unlucky Because I can not hop If I were a kangaroo I would hop around with a pouch But I hope I won’t fall down Otherwise I will say ‘ouch! ! ’ If I were a penguin I would walk like a baby If the weather becomes hot I will have a swim, may be If I were a monkey I would sit on a tree And keep throwing berries On a poor old donkey If I was that donkey I would chew up the monkey Even though I know He is not that tasty If I were a cockroach I would steal food from the larder I just hope my other task Doesn’t become harder If I were an eagle I would soar in the sky And look at my sumptuous prey From up so high If I were a camel I would store food on my back And then I will move on Carrying it like a sack If I were a peacock I will dance in the showers Amongst the tall trees Amongst the beautiful flowers If I were a sparrow I will fly or eat grains Bur even if I only do that I still have lots of brains If I were a duck I will wade in the lake But I will stop the poem here Or you will shout, ” stop for heaven’s sake”
