An Elephant

An elephant balanced
On a spider web.
As he saw that it held him
He called out to another elephant.

Two elephants balanced
On a spider web.
As they saw that it held them
They called for another elephant.

Three elephants...
Four elephants...
Five elephants…
Six elephants…
Seven elephants...
Eight elephants…
Nine elephants…

Ten elephants balanced
On a spider web.
As they saw it wouldn’t hold them
No other elephants came.
