Tale Spinning

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dog and Elephant, with long country nights,

Counted the stars as they wandered away

Into the meadows, into the fields,

Searching for the stardust that comets yield.

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Oh, my friend,”said Dog, “look to the sky,

Another wonderful comet is passing us by;

It’s tail all a glitter, the rays it does glow,

Let’s follow it together, where ever it goes.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Elephant counted up to eleven

Speeding comets diving through the heavens

She wondered at their leavings

Thinking “Did any have misgivings?”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

One came around it’s speeding course

And in a fit of complete remorse

Dog turned to Elephant, and did disclaim

“When comets go, nothing is the same.”
