A poem by Oliver Herford

The Leopard

________________________________________________
Title:     The Leopard
Author: Oliver Herford [More Titles by Herford]

THIS is the Le-o-pard, my child;
His tem-per's any-thing but mild.
The Le-o-pard can't change his spots,
And that--so say the Hot-ten-tots--
Is why he is so wild.
Year in, year out, he may not change,
No mat-ter how the wea-ther range,
From cold to hot. No won-der, child,
We hear the Le-o-pard is wild.






[The end]
