Have you ever woke up and thought to yourself...
I’d love to be an elephant!! LOL!! No, that thought has never crossed my mind either. However, after a Google search about elephants – it may in the future!! hahaha!! Just kidding!
Joking aside, I didn’t know how incredible elephants are. I’ve got a new animal crush on elephants! Hahahaha
This poem makes me laugh out loud at the end and I hope it has the same effect on you. Just for giggles!!!
Oh To Be An Elephant
Today I learnt about elephants
With calm and gentle temperaments
Ranking high in intelligence
Most cultures deem them excellent.
The female herd is led by a female
Mother, sisters, daughters – led by a female
Caring for each others’ young – led by a female
Forming lifelong friendships – led by a female.
Her gestation period lasts for roughly 95 weeks
That’s almost 2 years – enough to make me weep
Shortly after the calf is born, he is standing on his feet
Weighing over 200lbs at birth – not exactly petite.
The calf can stay with mum and aunts until she is sixteen
She may stay with the herd for longer – that must make her mumma beam
I’m really impressed by elephants – I hold them in high esteem
They denote strength and power – they truly are supreme.
A boy I know said I danced like an elephant
Little did I know then, that this was a compliment
To have virtues of an elephant in this day is relevant
So call me elephant any day of the week – on this I am insistent.
YOU BETTER PUT SOME RESPECK PON MI NAME!!!!!
