Notes About The Poem

Friends Forever Nursery Rhyme

an elephant and a mouse, were the best of friends,

everything they shared, from bed on grass to food they taste.


Jeremy the wisest elephant, and Elena the smartest mouse,

had so much fun together, planned to build a palatial house.


you are big – the mouse says, you are tiny – the elephant laughs,

together we are so powerful, together we are strong enough.


they built a palace, majestic, with huge bedrooms ten,

two living and two dining, and an enormous kitchen!


what is their favourite food? of course cheese for Elena,

Jeremy loves nothing better than leaves of banana.


together they lived happily ever after, all animals loved two friends,

singing and dancing merrily, the perfect pair in the forest.

Thank you, Milton. Yes, that’s the reason I posted this poem - I wrote to Eve if she could include this in her collection. She agreed !!!
