Glamorous Giraffe

Glamorous giraffe was more fashionable than most I was fortunate enough to be her derby host I took her around and showed her off to others She was embraced by children, fathers and grandmothers Others tried to develop the kind of look she exhibited Truly a fashion statement, but totally prissily inhibited. Glamorous giraffe never let her guard down, not one time. I enjoyed showing her off, this lovely guest of mine.

I wished I could have met her. Did she have long lushes lashes as well? Giraffes have long purple scratchy tongues to help them pull leaves from the top of trees. I used to teach that to my kindergarten class. This was such darling and lovely write. When I read your poem I see a majestic gold mammal and a respectful rider on top.
