    Eletelephony

    Laura Elizabeth Richard

    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!)
