Biggles in Goggles

Listen to Colin reading his poem ...
Biggles wears goggles
and giggles at gooses
(or geeses) in gaggles
who jiggle and joggle
and wiggle and waggle.

My mind truly boggles
at all of the gaggles
of geeses (or gooses)
who waggle and wiggle
and joggle and jiggle
for Biggles who giggles
when wearing his goggles.
