Blackberry & Co
Wise Old Thumper
My hobby is eating, I do it all day.
I can soon munch my way through a pile of fresh hay.
On the lawn I will nibble a blade here or there,
Til the grass is quite gone and the lawn is quite bare.
Lovely herbs are delicious, just give me the pot;
Basil, parsley and dill, I will eat the whole lot.
Is that carrot you’re holding? My favourite treat!
Give it here! Hurry up, or I might bite your feet.
I can also chew hutch legs, and ramp sides and doors,
‘Cos the wood tastes so nice, and it’s fun too, of course.
So I graze through the hours, I’m a happy wee bun,
You can see it’s my hobby by the size of my tum.
