Fire Elephants
Did you ever see an elephant
in the fire's flickering flame?
I told my wife about my sighting
she laughed
saying, "You're insane!"
But there they were,
and that's the gospel truth.
I grabbed my camera
and snapped a pic.
"Here's my proof," I said
snuggling up to her in bed.
She rolled her eyes,
shook her head,
and with the cutest little grin,
she said...
"what a nut I married."
Knew it,
the day we wed."

ReplyDeleteHi Patty. I wasn't sure bout them elephants.
ReplyDeleteSo I got up Real close to check them out before I snapped the pic and nearly burned my beard off. Thanks for your lovely comment.
Alex, seeing the elephants is only half of it. I actually heard them trumpet. Your compliments and encouraging words are so appreciated. Alles Gute.
Wow, awesome picture Doug, inspiration everywhere!
