- (continued from previous page)I have but on horn,
I’m not a unicorn,
I milk, but I’m not a Kerry cow,
My grandmother loves me,
Around the House shoves me,
With a smile on her beautiful brow.
( A Teapot )As White as Milk,
Yet Milk it isn’t,
As green as Grass,
Yet grass it isn’t,
As Red as blood,
Yet blood it isn’t,
As Black as Ink,
Yet Ink it isn’t.
( A BlackBerry )What always walks with it’s head down ?
A nail in your boot.Here I stand and far I see,
A Blackbird’s nest in a holly tree,
I would fight the bull and fight the bear,
And conquer all the Birds in the air.
A Gun.
