Around the World in the Good Ship DOGGEREL. 62

A doggerel series about the countries of the world.

Gambia.

It’s got a narrow strip of coast
That doesn’t give much room to boast
In Africa.

But it is full of wonders there—
The animals, the jungle lair
In Africa.

Surrounding it is Senegal—
A map designed by Roald Dahl
In Africa?!?

Some history of slavery—
Though now those folks are often free
In Africa.

It’s got some crocs; it’s got some snakes—
And that is all it really takes
In Africa ...

To keep me home.
