A Diddly Poem for Dorian & Glover

O dear dear Cuddly marmoset

So fun to watch your mermen dance

Tumbling rumbling in the sea

Holding, boiling, roiling laughter bac

to keep the fish at bay

spitting suds and bubbles

Jumping up upon the cockleshells

Angry barnacles breathe back

striking out their feathery tongues

begging, yelling with watery spleen

"N'er err to dare come back!"

seething seashell venom

in twisted greenly crackly wrack

They sailed off in briny oyster shell

with oar of runcible spoon

And owl and cat in primate gowns

pretending dreams of silvery moons

laughing gulls and crooning loons

A day, a night, a wild cold tale

a chocolate bar of joy to share

in a champagne bath of glee

Invincible we think all hope

forever and a day!
