A Tale of a Tail

There once was a girl named Gail
she was born with a prehensile tail
quite a sight to behold 
is what I've been told
especially when she's climbing in trees.

Believe it or not, if you dare
it was hard for most not to stare
she learned fairly soon
that her tail was a boon
in the circus, a star she would be.

So the story turns out, you see
this tail, like an arm, making three
made her money with ease
on the flying trapeze,
quite a tale of a tail in the end!
