My Elephant Elmer
my elephant elmer eats peanuts and hay
with his trunk full of water he sprays
to cool off in the heat of day
under elmer is lots of shade
elmer can roll on top of a giant ball
gracefully balanced he never falls
elmer is wide as he is tall
he likes to eat orange carrots raw
elmer is a true friend with lots of tack
he always allows me to ride on his back
he is much friendlier then giraffe jack
elephants are just good like that
elmer wears a polka dot bow tie
he can tiptoe on the high wire so high
he won't forget and can't deny
his cousin was the one who flies
my elephant elmer is my friend
we are buddies until the end
he's big in spirit as his tail is thin
with his big smile we all love him
