Zebidee and Marmarlade 🦉🌲

They live amongst a hollow wood
Two homes made from oak stumps
It is so hard to get in them
Their heads are bruised with bumps

They live so close together
So they often get confused
That they share all items in each abode and everything is well used

This makes them very stinky
Coz they do not like to wash
So people that pass by these stumps
Nip their noses and say “Oh Golly Gosh”

“What is this whiff, what is that pong, whatever can it be
It is the most disgusting smell 
We think It must be foxes wee”

Well zebidee and Marmalade
They are  never gonna change
The thought of cleaning up a mess
Does seem so very strange

So every morn they give a yawn
and eat some bugs and  fleas
They have a years supply hid 
In a closet in the trees

So any creepy crawly
That does land upon the ground
Is gobbled up so greedily
Whilst they run and prance around

They look so strange and odd
They are so different from each other
Which is quite a marvel and surprise
They share the same small mother

There was a time I can recall
It was’nt long ago
I heard they got trapped in for weeks
Stumps covered up with snow

Till weather changed and snow did thaw
It melted just in time
Coz the mucky stench upon the floor was changing into slime

They were slipping and a-sliding 
Falling hard upon the floor
Poor Zeb crashed into Marm and made the two of them so sore

“Oh Wo is me” they both did cry
This really is not funny
but then the two of them agreed the slime did taste like honey

Yum yum they licked and swallowed up the mess from on the floor
The slime was a delight
So they went out hunting for some more

So if you go a-walking and you notice two oak stumps
Just look inside if you are brave
You may find these curious lumps
