Choice Of Pets

Choice Of Pets

If I were given just one chance to pick a favorite pet.
There are so many different types I have not had as yet.
Why I could pick an Elephant or tiny dancing Flea,
A rodent living underground or big Whale in the sea.

A pet from some environment that's foreign to my own,
Perhaps create a world for them to live within my home?
Some kind I like to handle lots or one I could not touch?
The choices are so numerous it does not matter much.

I do not think a Grizzly Bear would be my pet of choice.
I need a pet I know for sure would harken to my voice.
I'm pretty sure that I prefer the soft and cuddly kind.
The big ones take up too much space, the small ones hard to find.

Although at times I dream about a pet that's so unique,
Unusual to say the least the ones of which I speak.
Now would it not seem strange to you or even get a laugh,
If you should see me passing by with my long neck Giraffe?

Now if you visit in my home and there you chance to see,
A Baboon sitting on a chair just watching my T.V.
Then hanging from a chandelier a big old friendly Snake,
Or a Lion in my kitchen just eating fries and steak.

Perhaps a Hippopotamus to keep my lawn trimmed neat.
A three toed Sloth up in a tree just hanging by it's feet.
An Ocelot, a Kangaroo a Wombat running free.
Some Lizards and a Crocodile from my menagerie.

Well, all these pets I'm sure are fine if I just had the space,
But I don't have a license for a zoo within my place.
The only choice I really have is keep a Dog or Cat,
They may be rather common but there's nothing wrong with that.
