Gunter (Ein Gedicht)

Gunter

(Ein Gedicht von Dieter Kermas)

.

Ein kleiner Hering namens Gunter,
war wissbegierig und recht munter.
So fand er auf dem Meeresgrund,
´ne schöne Dose, blank und rund.
Das Bett ist nur für mich allein,
so dachte er, und legt sich rein.
Und Gunter lag, ganz ohne Arg,
in einem leeren Heringssarg.
Auf der Dose, es war ´ne große,
stand „Hering in Tomatensoße.“
Man fingt ihn ein, den Gunter,
nun war er nicht mehr munter.
Auf der Dose, es war ´ne große,
stand „Gunter in Tomatensoße.“
