I asked my friend Kaye* what her favorite poem was and without hesitation she recited this perfectly. OK, so it’s not Shakespeare, but what a relief that is! Imagine trying to get Lulu up onto a balcony wearing a dress!
Being a 21st century elephoodle with a cordless phone, Lulu doesn’t have to worry about getting tangled in the telephunk like in the olden days. But she has other challenges: how’s a girl to keep her nose powdered?
Eletelephony
by Laura E. Richards
Once there was an elephant,
Who tried to use the telephant-
No! No! I mean an elephone
Who tried to use the telephone-
(Dear me! I am not certain quite
That even now I’ve got it right.)
Howe’er it was, he got his trunk
Entangled in the telephunk;
The more he tried to get it free,
The louder buzzed the telephee-
(I fear I’d better drop the song
Of elephop and telephong!)
*Kaye majored in English Literature in college and even studied in England. Hers is not an intellect to be trifled with!
hahahahahahahaha, Lulu is so sweet, she sits so nice with her trunk and ears. That picture is too funny, thanks for the laugh.
What a doll that Lulu is! If we tried anything like that with our brat cat, we’d come out of the altercation bruised and bloody!
I can’t believe you got her to wear that!! Too funny. Did you have to stick a doggie treat in the trunk???
What a riot…once there was a poodletrunk who tried to be an eledog…or something like that.
That is so cute & funny. I liked this picture.
Lulu is a great model! That is hilarious! I am going to try to get Dotty into a donkey costume!
