Menagerie Tragedy - a comic poem

My dog doesn’t bark

and my cow doesn’t moo.

My sheep won’t go bah

and my pigeon won’t coo. 


My snake doesn’t hiss 

and my bear doesn’t growl.

My frog will not ribbit.

My wolf will not howl.


My duck will not quack

and my thrush is unsung.

The creatures are silent.

The cat got their tongue.
