Here's Alison: The Blue Elephant

With diabolical cunning, a boy sets a trap to capture the rare blue elephant. Alison Ross's poem is about that wonderful, imaginative part of our lives - childhood.

With
Diabolical cunning,
He planned,
To catch
The Blue Elephant!

The pit
Was dug,
The trap
Was set.

Gently, gently
It came
Unknowing...
A prize
To boast of,
This rare beast...

Then through the leaves
It fell....
With many knocks...
Captured,
By a boy,
In his very own,
Sandbox!
