If I was an elephant i would be as happy as I could be
I would be so happy I would even climb a tree
Other elephants would stop and look at me
Saying “look at that silly ol’ elephant up in a tree”
My tongue it twists, it curls, it bends
it licks my lips, my throat defends.
It also tastes, a noble job,
though biting it will make him throb.
When I think about my skin
The trouble it has got me in
The things it said were good to do
The things that it has put me through
I was first introduced
By a man named Dr. Seuss.
His rhymes helped me in the best of ways,
Especially if it was one of my worst days.
A real inspiration,
Gave me a good foundation.
I love when poems rhyme
It reminds me of a better time
I was young, the world was bright
Playing house, telling moons goodnight
But as I grew, the world grew too
