उत्तर
1. An elephant
There was a little elephant
To whom the river bank was forbidden.
But he went to the brink
Waiting for the crow to drink
And a bitter lesson when his flunk got bitten
2. A Peacock
“Joy is a peacock. Its beauty so rare
A rainbow of colors that vibrantly flares
After the rain, brightly they come out
Into a fan-like form uniquely it creates
Never forgot, this vision, joyfully it illuminates”!
3. Butterfly
A Spider awaits a butterfly
As he comes fluttering by
It’s caught in the silken trap
And straggles acts wings flap
Battling for survival under the blue skies
