Tuck the Toucan's Lost Tail Feather

Writer: jjacquirjjacquir

Tuck the Toucan, being such a chatterbox,

Could chat the hind legs of a donkey (including his socks !)


Perched on the beach of a tree,

He muttered to himself merrily....


When Christopher the Crocodile complained about the noise,

It ruffled his feathers, he was so very annoyed !


As he bristled, angrily,

A feather fell out and floated down off the tree !

"Ouch !" The toucan cried out in pain,

Trying to stick it back in again !


There was no way he could - it was bent and no good,

He looked around for something else in the wood !


First, Tuck tried a squirrel's bushy tail,

But it tickled him so he head off down the trail


Next he saw if a Fox's brush would fit,

It was so big, he couldn't sit !


By the lake, he spied a flamingo, with feathers that shone

Tuck asked if he could borrow one


With a piece of string and a splash of glue,

The toucan adored his tail so new


But when he had a fight with a duck,

The stick on tail, soon became unstuck ! He looked for another feather that perhaps he could pluck...

Far and wide he searched, without much luck


He stumbled on the branch of a tree,

Trying it on for size, it fit perfectly !

As he bustled, the leaves rustled,

He squawked so loudly, his colourful quif got tustled !


He paraded like a peacock around and about...

"Who's that creature ?" You could hear everyone shout....
