My Elephant
That's not my Elephant
My Elephant is mint
She will not be found under any tent
You see she has all the right accents
Hope your hungry and ready
Me and my Elephant love our Ma's spaghetti
Please excuse, she will slurp and burp
An I garantee her plate will be cleaned first
Ma calls her Ella for short
But dont even think it, my Ella
Will not be caught wearing a skirt
Or dress of any sort.
As for more of her favorites
We mention how she loves to visit
"Hers" as she calls them
Her second graders
This week in school
The bright lights
Of the teachers sights
Are set on the Bill of Rights
Ella enjoys to listen and learn
Shes a firm believer
Some day soon it might be her turn
To teach some little Ellas
Their rights as Elephants
Of the United States Of America
