Possums in the Vegie Patch

Possums in the vegie patch!

Stealing radishes at night.

Pulling off the leaves

Munching with all their might.

They didn’t like the basil much

But picked a leaf or two,

Nibbled juicy lettuce leaves,

Then found the radishes to chew.

They must have sent a message out

For friends to come around

And share the tasty radishes

They’d fortunately found.

A radish-feasting possum party

Held at this address!

You’d think they’d clean up afterwards

And not leave such a mess!
