Hurdy-gurdy

(can't find the date in this book)

The elephant
that made
the hurdy-gurdy
was sheltered
by a dirty birdy

when he played
the sound was heard
by the flock of geese
that knew the herd
of other elephants
had gone.

but also when he played
the birdy stayed
and carefully displayed
his collection of fiddles
for the elephant to see
