The Dodo

Title:     The Dodo
Author: Hilaire Belloc [More Titles by Belloc]

The Dodo used to walk around,
And take the sun and air.
The sun yet warms his native ground--
The Dodo is not there!

 

The voice which used to squawk and squeak
Is now for ever dumb--
Yet may you see his bones and beak
All in the Mu-se-um.

[The end]
Hilaire Belloc's poem: The Dodo
