Vernon: The Vegetarian Lion

Out on the big savanna, Inside a little cave, There lived Vernon the lion, who just wasn’t very brave.   Giraffes quite often scared him, Baboons and peacocks too. He couldn’t face an antelope, a warthog, or a gnu.   Vern never hunted zebras, And never tried to feast, On a gazelle or ostrich, or […]
