    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!)
    Anyway, he got his trunk
    entangled in the telephunk;
    The more he tried to break it free,
    the louder rang the telephee...
    (I think I'd better just drop this song
    of Elephop and Telephong.)

    ... my favorite/u> poem as a kid...still can recite most of it....
