The Monkey and the Peanut Butter



A monkey loves peanut butter
They keep big jars in a clutter
Creamy and yummy
It fills their tummy
Keeping their heart in a flutter

    Fantastic! My grandfather brought a monkey home from a bar once. I don't know if he liked peanut butter, but he was a fan of cheerios!
