Elephant Race—watch if you dare;
see how all the elephants fare
in this event that is for fun,
unique it is for everyone,
from China, France, most everywhere.
And check out what the runners wear;
it’s cool the elephants prepare
as they get set for their own run—
Elephant Race.
Perhaps it is too much to bear
in pressing heat and solar glare.
Yet sure enough when they are done,
past when they hear the starter’s gun,
they gather ‘round with much to share—
Elephant Race.
