The pets of my uncle.
The pets of my uncle.
My uncle had many pets.
He was always busy with them,
from the begining to end of the days.
His pet dog pestered him always
but he never became annoyed
and never tried to get rid of him anyways.
The pussy cat was very clever.
It was not found at any corner
but only appeared when he was at dinner.
He had a parrot.
When it made cacaphony,
as if it was making riot.
A monkey was put in a cage.
It was naughty.
Getting free it broke things out of rage.
The most peculiar was a tortoise.
Most of the time it stayed in case.
But when my uncle laid in bed,
it came out
and kissed on his face.
