The elephant and the dog
the weirdest of friends agreed
but two peas in a pod
are best of friends indeed
From when they were just babies
through each and every day
you could always find them together
as they would run and play
Although they were so different
they didn’t seem to care
’cause things like that don’t matter
when you learn how to share
As their parents watched them
they must have looked so odd
but I am quite certain
they were blessed by God
So as you gaze into the stars
on some cool country night
think of the dog and elephant
as your imagination takes flight

beautiful.
so true, kids are too young to differentiate people by size, shapes, colors, or types.
they know the differences, yet accept differences..
love to see you have captured the innocence of children here.
Thanks Jingle! I’m so happy that you invited me to do this. It was great fun and I enjoyed it tremendously. I loved your interpretation as well. God bless, Terri

you can create as many poems or stories based on the same prompt as you can, have fun today.
Thanks! I didn’t know that I could do more than one, thanks for the heads up ’cause I thought of a different one after I posted the “My Safari Story” post. Good to know. Blessings, Terri
