GiraffeAndMouse

And one day while 
a giraffe was crossing 
a bridge he heard 
a squeak looking waaaaay
down at his hoof
certain that he’d stepped 
on something he saw
a gray field mouse 
cowering in the corner 
Why are you crying 
small one he asked 
Be be because *squeak*
I’m alone And why
are you alone mouse
Because I wandered far
How far is far
asked the giraffe Faaaaaaar
*squeak squeak* Here mouse 
climb up my legs 
and onto my back 
for your faaaaaar is
much nearer for me 
than it ever will 
be for you just 
tell me to stop 
And after one prance 
and one skip and 
one canter the gray
field mouse was home 
Sometimes in our lives 
what seems so far 
away to us is 
so very very near 
to others never be 
afraid to *squeak* when 
you see a giraffe
