Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is a mystery, Today is a gift, that is why it is called the present.


His name was Ted
If you look up you can’t even see his head
I believe his height is exactly 10’3
He can only eat off of specially grown trees
He doesn’t even have one friend
Al the others were only 6’10
He tried and tried to make himself shorter
Even if it was just an inch and a quarter
Everything he tried just would not work
He just slipped and kicked everyone like a jerk
But one day, a new giraffe came to the zoo
And she was exactly 10’2
This was perfect for Ted
Little did he know, that one day they would wed
Her name was Sally
And Ted always brought her to the giant bowling alley
Ted never again felt out of place
Whenever he looked at her beautiful face
All the other animals got very jealous
Especially the other lonely fellas
