AnElephantCant stay incognito
He does not even know what that means
Or where it might be
So he treads lightly
He thinks it does not add up to a small hill of beans
You see he has been in the newspapers
He thinks he is practically famous
In the Ayrshire Post
On Scotland’s West Coast
Now almost three people know what his name is
AnElephant has a vast number of aliases
In his Ayr Academy schooldays he was known as Springer
Which is somewhat mystifying
As his given name is Brian
And he writes this book as the enigmatic C. E. Ayr
But if you think he is not very important
He tells you this feature is widely syndicated
But even he finds it hard
To rhyme Kilmarnock Standard
With Irvine Herald so he is somewhat deflated
A clever chap called Edwin Lawrence
A roving reporter with his nose to the ground
Says this is not really news
But it does quite amuse
Although nothing about AnElephant can be described as profound
Now we come to the end of this ditty
He thanks everybody who stops by for a look
All that he wants to say
Is Thank You and hey
If you click here you can see his cool book
Awesome!
You are quite the celebrity!

Now, now, Brenda, AnElephantCant have any shenanigans, hanky panky or houghmagandie here.
And isn’t it amazing what a flattering light can do to a pink pachyderm’s appearance!
Your visits and comments are treasured, regardless, dear sweet lady.

AnElephantCant help writing in rhyme
He does not do it just out of vanity
In this little verse
He thanks lovely Dale for her kind words
But takes no responsibility whatsoever for her dubious sanity

AnElephantCant hit the big time
Although he is ten feet tall
Cos he is kinda thick
And this little pic
Of him in a box is really quite awfully small

Karin is most happy for Elephant
For she knew him in his struggling days
Passed over for Dumbo
Too large for Columbo
He’s the brains despite what C.E. says
Seriously though, this is very exciting and I hope that all three of you are celebrating the recognition. ~ k
