The Giraffe that Loved His Spots

The Giraffe that Loved His Spots

A Poem by Heather Clayton

Once there was a giraffe that loved his spots

 

 

From chimney sweeps to garden pots.

 

 

His pajamas had lots of splotches

 

 

so did his handkerchief and his watches.

 

 

He had spots on his royal chair,

 

 

Mr. ruler of the neck-tie air.

 

 

He also judged for love spot accuracy

 

 

his love of his life named Lacy.

 

 

He had little spotless giraffe calf

 

 

it caused quite a stir on his behalf.

 

 

But he still declared his land ruler of splats

 

 

and in the end it looked like a bunch of big brown mats.

The giraffe is an organizer of events that are numerous in number. So he created patches on his skin to identify with each experience that came to him. That way he became more orderly and brought to his vision a deep perception of the meaning of events and objects around him. He makes a great friend for someone who is in need of organization. A great write!
