Hula Eel by Shel Silverstein


Take an eel,
Make a loop,
Use him as a hula hoop.
Feel him twist and twirl and spin,
Down your ankles, round your chin,
Tighter, tighter, tighter yet,
Ain't an eel a lovely pet?
Hey-answer when I talk to you-
Don't just stand there turning blue.

Haha, what she said. I have two of his books I still thumb through pretty often for inspiration. I think his drawings are just as fantastic as his poems.
