The Humbling of Mr Goose

by Debbie Allanson

There once was a goose who was cross,
He really thought he was boss!
He thought "What the hell!,-
I`ll give Garf a bell,
And tell him the Milly is dross!"

You've guessed our Garf was irate,
he said “You'll soon be on my plate!;
Watch out you old goose,
Before your neck gets a noose,
And your bod' sees an untimely fate!”

Our goosey had sure seen the light,-
That Garf had a bark and a bite!;
He was quick to surrender,
To Garfy's agenda -
Now knowing it`s no good to fight!

Mr Goose works hard these days,-
Co-worker! - Garf gave him a raise,
He loves the Milly,
You won't hear him be silly;
From his mouth you'll only hear praise!
