Giraffic Park
The latest thing in eco-chic
Is spotted milk and cheese,
Obtained from freckled animals
With high and lumpy knees.
Their eyes are big and lashy and
Their heads have door-knob things;
Their tails sport lovely flourishes
Akin to feathered wings.
Their tongues are eighteen-inches long;
Their manes are rusty red;
They have to kneel to get a drink;
They never go to bed.
They’re ruminants like Holstein cows;
They eat trees from the top;
Their babies weigh a hundred pounds
And drop from six feet up.
Their milk is richly elegant?
A pure and tasty cup?
And farmers love giraffes because
They milk them standing up.
