Michael C. Carmichael rode on his bicycle all throughout Carmicheal Square.
Trailing behind him were elephants on carts, each one with a hat on its hair.
They waved around flags and tooted their trunks, and they rode along their merry way,
looking for someone walking the streets to buy them and adopt them that day.
One little girl with a very rich grandad, saw the elephants ride by on the street
and she noticed the sign on the very first one flapping about right at its feet
That indicated to those they passed by, the kind of person they hoped they would find
The sign read "For just one hundred thousand eighty-three dollars you can have me and all my friends behind."
This little girl quickly turned to her grandad and asked, "Please Grandad, please, may I?"
When Grandpa looked from the elephants to her, "Oh deary me" he did cry.
But he couldn't refuse the request of his granddaughter, she was after all his pride.
And not another grandchild did he have lurking around at any other house inside.
So of course, he flagged down Michael C. Carmichael and bought those elephants on the spot.
And Michale C. Carmichael,
with money in hand,
and completely elated,
went off on his way with a trot.
