A Rhyming Romance

by Shel Silverstein

Said the pelican to the elephant,

I think we should marry, I do.

Cause there's no name that rhymes with me,

And no one else rhymes with you.

Said the elephant to the pelican,

There's sense to what you've said,

For rhyming's as good a reason as any

For any two to wed.

And so the elephant wed the pelican,

And they dined upon lemons and limes,

And now they have a baby pelicant,

And everybody rhymes.
