Happy Valentine's Day

The Kangaroo’s Courtship

Oh will you be my wallaby?
Asked Mr. Kangaroo.
For we could find so very many
Jumping things to do.
I have a pocket two feet wide
And deep inside,

My dear, you’d ride—
Oh, come and be my bouncing bride,
My Valentine, my side-by-side
I am in love with you.
