My Friend Godfrey

My friend Godfrey measures eleven feet
from the top of his head down to his toes.
He has two miniature LED headlights
mounted on each side of his nose.

He's got  two purple eyes. They are in the usual place,
but he has ten more on the tips of his fingers,
which makes it impossible for him to play a guitar
though he is quite an impressive singer.

Godfrey has two powerful silver wings.
When he needs to go anywhere he can  just fly.
People often mistake him for an angel
when they see him soar high in the sky.

He has green skin and yellow lips
and a headful of daisies instead of hair.
But everyone likes him when they get to know him
for he is quite charming and debonair. - Jeff Barnes
