Crocodile

There was an old man from Carlisle
    Who went for a swim in the Nile.
    He soon gasped with despair
    When he came up for air.
    He's now just a crocodile's smile.

Wow, this is amazing, George. If I had to divide up the multiple top placements into the very best three, I would be hard pressed whether to put this one first, second or third. For me it's one of the very best.
