Here, take my elephant, she said. I don't want him anymore.
I'm done! I'm tired! (I've heard this before.)
You're the Social Worker she said, You know what to do.
Just give him away. I don't care. I'm through!!
I looked at my friend and said with a sigh.
Your elephant's a doozy. He's a really big guy.
I can't take him away. He's yours to keep.
So leave him outside and get some sleep.
Wherever you go, no matter how far.
Your elephant will find you wherever you are.
We all have elephants, I said with a smile.
They take us on journeys, there's no denial.
The thing to remember, the thing that is true
is that God made this elephant especially for you.
As you live with your elephant and teach him to mind
his strength will become yours and God's love you will find.
So here is your elephant, I'm giving him back.
My love and support you never will lack.
