3 Elephants

By well-wisher

Thu, 25 Jan 2018
  • 427 reads
 
One elephant, big and fat,
climbed up an apple tree
then two elephants after that.
In total, that makes three.
 
But three elephants, large and round
for trees, far too much, weigh
so those elephants all fell down,
bumping their trunks of grey.
