GIRAFFE ...
GIRAFFE ...
For Eddie, Who Loves Giraffes
I've often thought it would be such a
laugh ...
To be a lengthy, leggy giraffe
...
...With gangly legs, and only one bound ...
I could cover large distances, over the ground ...
I'd be able to see over tops of trees ...
And eat all the sweetest, juiciest leaves
...
...
(I'm also fond of a ripe banana
...
...But you don't see those on the Welsh savanna
...)
...)With long, elegant neck, I could
see all around ...
But, I couldn't hide ... I would
always be found!
Yes....
To be a giraffe ...
Would be
quite a laugh ...
But....
If I had a sore
throat....
I'd need a l-o-n-g scarf
...
