It's Dark in Here

I am writing these poems
From inside a lion,
And it's rather dark in here.

So please excuse the handwriting
Which may not be too clear.

But this afternoon by the lion's cage
I'm afraid I got too near.

And I'm writing these lines
From inside a lion,
And it's rather dark in here.

--Shel Silverstein
