Poem of the Week<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whale<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Whale is stout about the middle<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He is stout about the ends,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

& so is all his family<\/p>\n\n\n\n

& so are all his friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He’s pleased that he’s enormous,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He’s happy he weighs tons, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

& so are all his daughters<\/p>\n\n\n\n

& so are all his sons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He eats when he is hungry<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each kind of food he wants,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

& so are all his uncles<\/p>\n\n\n\n

& so are all his aunts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He doesn’t mind his blubber,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He doesn’t mind his creases,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

& neither do his nephews<\/p>\n\n\n\n

& neither do his nieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You may find him chubby,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You may find him fat, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But he would disagree with you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He likes himself like that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
