HOME SWEET HOME

Usually when I draw something I do not usually go back and re-draw it. Well I did on this drawing "Home Sweet Home" I re-drew to an ATC size which is 2.5 x 3.5 for a trade.

Medium: Pencil

STRICTLY GERM-PROOF

The Antiseptic Baby and the Prophylactic Pup

Were playing in the garden when the Bunny gamboled up;

They looked upon the Creature with a loathing undisguised;

It wasn't Disinfected and it wasn't Sterilized.

***

They said it was a Microbe and a Hotbed of Disease;

They steamed it in a vapor of a thousand-odd degrees;

They forze it in a freezer that was cold as Banished Hope

And washed it in permanganate with carbolated soap.

***

In sulphureted hydrogen they steeped its wiggly ears;

They trimmed its frisky whiskers with a pair of hard-boiled shears;

They donned their rubber mittens and they took it by the hand

And 'lected it a member of the Fumigated Band.

***

There's not a Micrococcus in the garden where they play;

They bathe in pure iodoform a dozen times a day;

And each imbibes his rations from a Hygienic Cup-

The Bunny and the Baby and the Prophylactic Pup.
