If Elephants Ruled

If elephants ruled the world, it's a fact
They wouldn't make us a circus act
Their hearts big and caring
Know not greed, only sharing
Golden Rule notions we've lauded but lacked

I always thought that elephants had long memories Robert. It is so tragic that we exploit them for their tusks.

Elephants are also known for getting drunk on fermented fruits. So caring they forgive and forget!

The same goes for giraffes but that might be stretching it!
