Animal Alphabet: J is for Jerboa
This week's "Animal Alphabet" drawing comes with a fragment of a poem by Marianne Moore, one of my favorite poets.
That's the last couple of stanzas of "The Jerboa," because J is for Jerboa. You can click the pic to make the words legible.
If you have any questions about this critter, I refer you to the Moore poem. It starts on p. 10.
Nice! What a wonderful poem, too. And hey, your Henry David Thor is hilarious!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment on my blog. Not sure if I'll back up & do the others, but I'll definitely keep submitting.
I totally think you should back up and do the others. That's what Lupi is doing... And it's fun!
ReplyDeleteThat's cool! I never know there was a poem about jerboas until just now.
