OH, OKAPIOh dear. Okapi,
why must you copy those around you? The horns on your crown and tongue that flops down belong to Giraffe. And, just to be clear, those stripes on your rear, are definitely Zebra’s. Your hoof, split in two, is quite like a shoe I’ve seen before. Oh deer, Okapi. But you’re not a deer. So, no copying here. Just be yourself. What? You are? Huh… Your horns, stripes, and feet, help make you complete? Well, that’s true… And springtime each year More ‘kapis appear But different. There’s none, young or old with your precise mold. You’re you! You aren’t a copy. Oh! Dear Okapi.
