Directly Across the Street From My House, An Elk Out For A Stroll
An elk appeared on the street where I live
It walked along the sidewalk like it was paying a visit
To a friend or a relative or some other aquaintance
It looked about the neighborhood, it was very inquisitive
I was hoping it wasn't bringing by popcorn or cookies to solicit
Maybe it was looking for a mate, pursuing a romance?
It stopped in front of Fred's house and looked about, tentative
But it wasn't long before it got bored and off it went
Probably for dinner on some tree bark or a tasty plant
