"Penguin Anthony"

Mister Penguin called Anthony,

thought that he was super funny.

Dumping rubbish all around,

on the lovely island’s ground.

Every time he had a sweet,

he threw wrapper at his feet.

He thought he was being “cool”,

but in fact – he was a fool.

He liked lady penguin from the same island,

who lived a bit further up the green highland.

He once invited her for a dinner,

thinking he always would be a winner.

The lady penguin sent him a letter:

“Mister, you learn some manners, better.

You are so messy and very horrible,

your littering is simply unbearable.

I will never be your friend,

unless you make the habits end”.

Penguin felt so much ashamed,

having read what lady claimed.

Went out and spent all day cleaning,

understanding letter’s meaning.

He became a changed creature,

later on, even, a teacher.

Educating how to care,

and of duties be aware.

Lady penguin got impressed,

soon became his frequent guest.

He was grateful for that letter,

which has changed him for much better.
