Tess - a poem

I have a dog called Tess
She jumps over into next door's garden
When she wants a beg-your-pardon
Just lucky, I guess!


(I used to have a book of poems by Spike Milligan and this was the only one I could very nearly remember:
From Sydney Zoo
An Alligator
Was put on board
A flying freighter.

He ate the pilot
And the navigator
Then asked for more,
With mashed potater.

True story apparently. The effort above is a little mime to his style)
