Elephant Sleepover

Published by Family Friend Poems August 2020 with permission of the Author.

An elephant came for a sleepover
And jumped into my bed
I never saw him coming ‘til
He landed on my head
So now my head is flattened
My bed is broken too
And as for Mr. Elephant?
He’s gone back to the zoo

From: Supersonic Gran and Other Poems by Conrad Burdekin
