Daring do of Dave

Daring Dave the dromedary packed his bags for going to sea he was meeting Wiley Willie the whale off in search of the holy grail A strange combination if ever you do  but Willie was a hump-back too. Their guide this day was bug eyed Billy a bumbling bee but not so silly He found the entrance to Aladdin's cave while making honey for the brave A word, a nod, a shrug of shoulder,  and Harry the Hippo removed the boulder. Twas dark inside as dark as night but Frederick firefly provided light as Garry the gator his teeth was flossing met for information at Zebra crossing must get the plans right first time off  so hire the best; Billy bear the Toff. Renowned for strategy of catching fish sally the salmon his favourite dish standing tall in water fast hoped this challenge may be his last getting old and past his prime  thoughts of hibernation sublime. Gerry the giraffe the long necked feller had come with the twinkling of a great idea if dawn the duck billed platypus  could make a scene; create a fuss the others under watchful eye.  Could perhaps just slip right by.  Slide Into the abyss down Sidney snake Careful now we must not wake the barmy bats who so aloof would scream as if to raise the roof Alerting all inside the bog we must not stir the sleeping dog. Creeping Chris the caterpillar Had roped in his friend, Guy the gorilla In case awoke the craft cat whose precious house the treasure at Silken slipper socks made ever so neat  bound noise from everybody's feet. At last the prize was now in sight Owl checking both ways left and right then around the back did look his head he did not have to unhook A sliver of light upon a bail had they indeed found the Holy grail? Then all at once there came commotion A glow appearing oer the ocean Neon signs did start to flicker hyena startled could only snicker and then the light at last was shone Pet food special day TWO FOR ONE!
