Showering With a Pachyderm

It is cool, refreshing, and it makes you smell smart the elephant said.
We stared at this pachyderm, was he all right in his enormous head?
Seriously, stand under here, you will love it, he said to my cousin Fred.
No thanks, said Fred. I like taking showers in my bathroom, instead.

I watched the elephant who was having a great time indeed.
He was soon joined by three horses and a buffalo steed.
I wanted to bathe with them, so I got my soap with grass weed.
Hoping at this moment no one starts any kind of stampede.
