WOMBLING VILLANELLE

Of all the Wombles I like Bungo best,
So often first one through the burrow door,
He seems to work much harder than the rest.
​
The lazy Orinoco is a pest,
And Tomsk, though lively, frankly is a bore.
Of all the Wombles I like Bungo best.
​
Bulgaria is often quite impressed
By Bungo’s great ideas and, furthermore,
He seems to work much harder than the rest.
​
Though Tobermory’s gadgets pass the test,
Et Madame Cholet’s haute cuisine j’adore,
Of all the Wombles I like Bungo best.
​
Shy Wellington’s emotions are suppressed,
Whilst Bungo is expressive and what’s more,
He seems to work much harder than the rest.
​
With all their traits laid bare it's manifest,
Despite my love for each and our rapport,
Of all the Wombles I like Bungo best,
He seems to work much harder than the rest.
