DMC: "Cockadoo-ROAR" by Violet Nesdoly
"I can do it for sure,
I have done it before,"
said monarch of beasts, the King Lion.
But his Cockadoo-ROAR
made the farmer snore more.
Trending: "Thank you Lord #Lyin' for tryin'."

Love that you sneaked in a little twitter idea, Violet. And 'made the farmer snore more'-terrific!
ReplyDeleteOkay, so maybe the cockadoo-ROAR didn't work, but I've still got hope for the social media uproar that may ensue. So clever, Violet!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michelle and Linda! It was a fun challenge. I loved Lori's idea for sneaking in puns, so that was my inspiration for the last lion--oops, I mean, line.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun poem, Violet. I love how the king of the jungle is totally ineffectual on the farm.
ReplyDeleteVery clever, Violet! I love the "monarch of beasts" and the # !
