In the jungle deep and wild, Lived a python, sleek and mild. His scales were green, his eyes so bright, A wondrous snake, a charming sight. Upon his head, a golden crown, No other snake wore such renown. With a basketball in his grip, He'd roll and bounce, he'd glide and slip. Oh, what fun for all to see, A crowned python, fast and free. He taught the birds to play and cheer, In the jungle's heart, he spread good cheer.
