Brachiosaurus
by Jack Prelutsky
Brachiosaurus had little to do
Brachiosaurus had little to do
but stand
with its head in the treetops and chew,
it nibbled
the leaves that were tender and green,
it was a
perpetual eating machine.
Brachiosaurus was truly immense,
its vacuous
mind was uncluttered by sense,
it hadn't
the need to be clever and wise,
no beast
dared to bother a being its size.
Brachiosaurus was clumsy and slow,
but then,
there was nowhere it needed to go,
if
Brachiosaurus were living today,
no doubt it
would frequently be in the way.
