THE ELEPHANT IN THE FRIDGE
There’s an elephant hiding in the fridge?
How can you be so sure?
There are footprints in the margarine
and eggshells on the floor.
How did an elephant manage
to get himself inserted?
It must have been a treat to see
the skill that he exerted.
Its elementary, my friend,
he slid inside with ease.
He clearly used the margarine
as lubricating grease.
