Consider the elephant,
Who goes through his day,
Stepping on things
That get in his way.

His body’s so big,
That he can’t even jump,
His nose is a vacuum
But it’s sometimes a pump.

We all use our noses
To breathe, smell, and sneeze.
Elephants can use theirs
To pull up big trees.

An elephant, it’s said,
Very seldom forgets.
Is that a big deal?
Without income or debts,

No meetings or birthdays
For him to remember.
No reason to care if
It’s June or November.

Are elephants so smart?
We may just never know.
But you’ll know for sure
If one steps on your toe!
