I heard this literal comment:
"It's raining cats and dogs."
My face went white, it was a fright,
a shock, I was agog.
What if it rained giraffes,
orangutans and mice,
rhinos, horses, cows and sheep
t'would not be very nice.
What if the forecast said:
"Watch out 'cos there will be
grizzly bears in blizzards
and drifts of chimpanzees."
I realised the nonsense
of this silly fantasy,
so I lowered my umbrella
and a hippo fell on me.
