DONKEY ...
DONKEY ...
To All My Dear Friends
I've always loved little donkeys ...
From the time I was a child ...
They seem to me long-suffering ...
Gentle, meek and mild ...
Hard-working and exploited ...
And, often, so misused ...
Sometimes, literally worked to death ...
Appallingly abused ...
They're not beautiful, nor elegant ...
In fact, they're rather plain ...
Long, furry ears, and wiry coat ...
Glamour's not their game!
I'd love to have a donkey ...
I'd keep him as a pet ...
I've asked The Good Man MANY times ...
But he's not said: "Yes" ...
As yet ...??!! ...
