A Wild Animal Personified
Gerry the giraffe am I
on tiptoes six metres high
In Africa I was born in the wild
& grew up there as a child
I went exploring as I was very bold
& now I reside in the English Cotswold
I can easily see over my stable stall
for it has only a ten foot wall
Everyday in my yard,I take tea
& lots of folk come to visit me
With my long tongue I lick clean my face
so some say my manners are a disgrace
