Darryl is feral
while the “Lily Pads” ain’t
if they only knew what’s for breakfast
they surely would faint.
For it’s not a mayfly
nor a spider or gnat
no, Darryl is after
much bigger than that!
Perhaps a small bird
or a more fearsome of beast
a small reptile or gator
would make quite the feast.
So while the “Lily Pads” sit
on their high horse and gloat
Darryl’s hunting their “opera”
somewhere down in the moat!

Darryl probably hasn’t been to the opera, but I hear he sings in a chorus!

Looks like dinner and a movie out–without the comfy reclining seats.

They might thing their classy with their ‘fine dining’ but without the chairs it looks like ‘eat and run’ -oops ‘eat and hop’.

I’m guilty. Good chairs are hard to draw.
