Eletelephony

 by Laura E. Richards
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!!!!!)
