Upside-down Elephants

I saw an elephant upside down.

Walking and rolling on street,

Begging, were few men along the rolling upside down elephant.

Hungry, taking anything and everything in his trunk, the elephant rolled on.

Little boy watching, forgetting where he was, came too close to the elephant.

Boy now saw the world upside down, sky was closer and the world looked far away...

Rolling along looking at the scary faces boy laughed.

I saw an elephant upside down...
