Road Trip

 A cockatiel
asked a seal
how he'd feel
about driving
an automobile.
"For real?"
asked the seal.
"Yes!" said the cockatiel.
So they climbed into
an International Scout
that was painted teal
with the seal
behind the wheel.
The tires squealed
as he pealed out
in the convertible Scout.
The seal stuck his snout
in the air and
began to shout
with glee,
"The open road
is the life for me!
I feel exuberant 
and free!"
"Wheeeee!
I agree!"
said the cockatiel
with glee.
They drive every day,
going every which way
you might see them someday
maybe even today
on the highway
so don't hesitate to say,
"Hello, Neil!" 
and, "Hello, Camille!"
for those are 
the respective names
of the seal
and cockatiel. - Jeff Barnes
