**Animal Talk**

I think that I've got it all figured out... what animal talk is all about.

"Moo" means excuse me, that's my milk you're takin'. "Oink" means quit lookin' at me like I'm bacon.

"Nay" means no shoes, no shirt, no ride. "Baa" means, gee lately it's colder outside.

"Arf" means my tail is my very best feature. "Meow" means I'm such an exquisite creature.

"Quack" means this water is turning quite icy. "Hiss" means you look so delicious and spicy.

"Roarrr" means I am the king of the beasts. "Honk" means I am the queen of the geese.

"Grrrr" means I'll eat you when you go for a walk. Boy am I glad I speak animal talk!
