If I Were An Elephant

IF I WERE AN ELEPHANT If I were an elephant I'd remember all kinds of things like where to find juicy trees and nice cold springs. I'd jump in the water and roll in the mud. And I'd spray my trainer named Bud. It would be such fun to splash and blow my trunk, maybe blow a tune. I'd remember each note. And I'd like to take a ride in a boat. We'd sail and I'd wave to the kids on the shore. They would be amazed at my talent and shout for more. And I'd use my big ears to fly. I'd take off and hit the sky. I'd fly above the circus tent and everyone would see how smoothly I can swoop down over the trees. But I'm not an elephant. I'm stuck on the ground. I can't blow a sound. And I don't like mud. But I do like water and I know I should go back to the circus and see my friend, Bud. Copyright: Dec. 10, 2016
