Elephant, Elephant
Elephant, elephant,
wonderful elephant.
Big and gray,
step and sway.
You are quite elegant.
Elephant, elephant,
interesting elephant.
in sun and shade
you spend the days
in your element.
Elephant, elephant,
hungry elephant.
Eating plants
while you advance
makes you most evident.
Elephant, elephant,
intelligent elephant.
creating trails,
wagging tails,
you are so excellent.
