    Favorite Stamp 

Elephants flooding the mail 

There's stamps and then there's stamps 

U.S. Postal stamps I have 

Sheets I bought two years ago* 

I liked them a lot on sight 

They are my favorites now 

Two of the beasts on each stamp 

Helped to save the elephant 

I bought every one there was 

The Post office almost cried

*Note: "The Elephants Forever stamp was issued by the United States Postal Service (USPS) on August 12, 202212. This delightful stamp features a fanciful, digital illustration of an elephant interacting with its young calf, capturing the affectionate nature of these beloved animals. The design also includes two stylized plants and a bright orange sun, adding whimsy and color to the stamp. Artist Rafael López created the original art, and Derry Noyes served as the art director for this heartwarming depiction of elephants. 🐘🌞

The first-day-of-issue event for the Elephants stamp was held at The Elephant Discovery Center in Hohenwald, TN1. It’s wonderful to see these majestic creatures celebrated through this lighthearted and playful stamp! 💌🐘
