Brontosaurus, welcome back

When young I thought you were long dead

But later heard you’d never lived

That was what the experts said

Thunder lizard, once you roamed

Jurassic ground beneath your feet

Then gone, removed from history

Written out, obsolete

Now they say that Marsh was right

And your position is restored

The bones are yours and yours alone

No more a mere apatosaur

Just you, distinct, to me the best

Of any beast that came before us

Prince of all the dinosaurs

Welcome back, brontosaurus
