They teach them how to behave.
And how to share.
They show them how to love.
And shower them with hugs.
They show their trustworthiness.
And guide them along the way.
They make sure their little ones are clean.
And feed them at any time they need.
They carry their young on their backs.
And hold onto their trunks.
Or latch onto their tails, keeping them nearby.
Their mother is their shelter.
She is their companion.
She is their first love.
While the father is their protector.
They make sure their young is wrapped up tight.
And that they'll always have a place to lie.
They provide their young with shelter.
And teach them to look out for danger.
But most of all they know that no amount of cuddles are ever enough.
