Kangaroo With A Boomerang

Folder: 
Humorous Poetry

A kangaroo went hopping

through the outback one day,

he was hopping mad

while carrying a boomerang.



He was looking for me

I did something bad,

I stepped on his tail

that made him extremely mad.



I didn't mean to do it

no, I swear,

he'll smack me with that thing

I can't hide anywhere.



I tried to hide

in a eucalyptus tree,

it wasn't good enough,

because he found me.



I tried to explain to the kangaroo

what I did was a mistake,

he was so angry

he began to shake.



He beat me over the head

with that gigantic boomerang,

I'll never make friends

with a kangaroo again.
