 Dr. Dolittle

My favorite doctor does be

Dr. Dolittle who became

Beloved human fictionally,

A love for animals his aim.

At home, Puddlesby-on-the-Marsh,

He learned the secret of how to

Talk to animals, nothing harsh.

Then world traveling he did do.

Many animals he did reach,

Who trusted him to give them aid,

Because they understood his speech,

And of him they were not afraid.

Human understanding's a must

For gaining an animal's trust.
