Ode to the Woodlanders
There is no creature
like the otter
who shoots like an arrow
through the water
Every mole can dig a hole
and would never hurt
another soul
A hedgehog can roll
into a spikey ball
and always brews the best
refreshments of them all
And don't forget
those arguing shrews
but when they're on boats
they make great crews
Also the scoffing hare
fatter than the rest
the fruit trees wouldn't be bare
if it weren't for that tubby pest.
The great and kind mouse
lives with other woodland creature
in the humongous redstone house
where the Brothers and Sisters are teachers
at last the fearless badger
but of course never least
for countless, countless ages
they have been warrior beasts
