The Donkey and the Goose

There once was a donkey named Mel
For many years he could not smell
But one day did notice
A beautiful crocus
Growing alone near the dell.

There once was a goose named Ali’
Unfortunate she could not see
But one day her woes
Arose through her nose
As hyacinths scented sweetly.

Soon after, becoming best friends
The goose and the donkey did lend
Through shared smell and sight
Their gifts of delight
As flowers so soothingly send.
