The Clean Zebra

The mare and Zebra were friends.
They lived in a house on the fens.

The zebra confided, one day,
The house was too dusty to stay.

The mare then laughed in his face,
“That’s balderdash! Look at this place!”

But the zebra instead wrote a list,
And totaled the mess in a gist.

With grave words, he said to the horse,
“We’ll clean it together of course.”

Great job pal

I've written a few like this myself. They're a lot of fun to write and a great laugh when read. Even though it might not seem to have much of a meaning a meaning non-the-less can normally be garnered from them just like this one, if you really want to look so deep. Great job pal.

Nice story that has a very lyrical quality! This is a very original
and unusual piece, and is fun!
