All creatures whether great or small
The Lord our God has made them all.
They come in all shapes and sizes
And in not a few disguises. 

Yet, one that so fascinates me
Makes its home up in the tree.
Just sleeping in branches by day
And leaves at night eating away.

To behold, cuddly and furry
Never appears in a hurry,
And has such quaint bear-like features;
'Tis one of God's cutest creatures. 

The Australian bush is its home
And never far from it does it roam.
KOALA, it is called by name
