Henry's Goat's Blog Part 25 - The goat with a coat
15 July 2007
You know that poem of his where he wrote, ‘It’s wintertime now, so I’ll make it a coat’? Well, winter it was when I came to his flat, And cold it was too, and I didn’t like that; But never a sign of a coat did I see Till Sunday (today) at a quarter to three. It’s summertime now, and I’m rather dismayed To find that I’m given this coat he has made. He found an old shirt and he cut it in two. (Believe me – it’s true. What a dumb thing to do!) I must have been dreaming, not keeping alert, And now I’m wrapped up in a half of a shirt. The sleeves are so long that I can’t move around. I’ll just have to sit here until I am found.
I’ll wait until one of you comes to the flat And you can release me. I’ll thank you for that. It gives me no pleasure to say to my stoat That now, only now, I’m ‘The Goat with a Coat’.
