An elephant followed me home todayafter waiting outside my class.He patiently puttered around all dayplaying hopscotch and munching grass.He followed me out to the parking lotand then rode with me on the bus.He squeezed in the back near my normal spotwhile the other kids stared at us.He came in my house like a dog or cat,after smashing in through the door.At dinner he pulled up a chair and sat,and then fell through the kitchen floor.I'm trying to sleep, but it's really toughwith an elephant in my bed.He's heavy and huge and his skin is rough,and his trunk is across my head.So though it may not seem relevantplease remember to heed this warning.Don't ever give nuts to an elephantif he follows you in the morning.
