The GiraffeI beg you, children, do not laugh
When you sur-vey a tall giraffe.
It's hardly sporting to attack
A beast that cannot answer back...
He has a trumpet for a throat
And cannot blow a single note.
It isn't that his voice he hoards;
He hasn't any vocal cords.
I wish for him, and for his wife,
A voluble girafter life.
Poem by Ogden Nash (who else?) Illustrated by Alexander
