Dancing Elephants

Twas the funniest sight Saw an elephant dance Wearing a frilly green dress Without any pants A crowd gathered round To take in the sight Some squirrels and penguins And hippos on bikes A bunch of silly monkeys Wearing polka dot ties Were joking with tigers Who wore shades for disguise What a glorious scene They were all having fun Taught us fa great lesson To love everyone No matter our colour Or the size of our brawn Everyone's our brother So let's all get along Saw the happiest thing At a party last night All the creatures were happy What a beautiful sight! ©Jack Ellison 2012

The very first movie I saw in 1939 at the age of 4 was Disney's "Wizard of Oz"! Scared the hell out of me! LOL xxx
