A lion ant had a bet with a stone penguin
to see who was most full of cheer
but neither could compete with the fiery snow man
singing with his glasses to his ears
The sheep kangaroo was dancing
well out of step with his eyes
his hair ran off to the oven
to stop it freezing the bed pies
The pillows had formed a brass band
to play for the helicopter lime
the rotor blades have cooked for the puppies
as the penguins don't have the time
The kittens set a laser printer to stun
and it ate a lemon horse of jelly
now they are going back home
to the eyes in a egg tree's belly

I would like to translate this poem
there ARE ant lions; they are insects. i've never heard of lion ants, but ANYTHING can appear in one of John's 'silly poems'. but don't expect all of his poems to be silly. many are FAR FROM SILLY. and they are GOOD also! Naughty kittens! ! ! this goes into February 2017's Section A of my/our showcases. thanks. bri :)
