The elephants would meet at their watering hole their usual time of day
And as usual they were excited about what each had to say.
One would talk about the terribly hot weather
While another said how much he loved getting together.
Some spoke about the animals they passed on their way in.
While some just listened quietly with a worried grin.
The talk continued for an hour or so.
Since being elephants, they had no where to go.
As their meeting came close to its end.
Each elephant would shake trunks with his friend.
They nodded to each other, and all did agree.
Never tell another elephant joke, not even for a fee.
