Giraffe

by Antaivia

Giraffe

he is yellow with brown

spots.  He has sunshine in his life.

He is not shy.  He is just right

to be my friend.

He is as tall as a tree.

But believe me--he is also stinky.

I wish I could bring one home

but sadly, I can't. 

Maybe, if I'm lucky I could bring one home

for just one full day

and I was thinking to myself

that I shouldn't bring one home

with me.  But If I did, I would run

around with him, my friend Giraffe.
