Animal Etiquette

[dickythecook]

Does anybody know who wrote the poem that begins, I think like this,

"Should a cassowary courtesy to a camel
Should a porpoise say good morning to a shark"

There are a few more verses, if anyone can help, I would be grateful.

^^^I've just noticed that that post doesn't identify the author. As it was published in 'Punch' though, it might have been written by an uncredited staff writer.

Ta for that. I had been there a while ago.I was hoping that the vast collective brain of answerbank might just have the answer.
