A Lonely Lion

A lonely lion went out to hunt in the herd of giraffes he had a kick and he run away angry Among elephants he arrived He sat and thought strategies to pick one and eat Elephants gathered and warned him “come near and we trample on you” Lonely lion went away ashamed He lay down thinking, hungry, angry but safari ants stormed his resting bed biting him every point of his body the lonely lion ran and ran scratching Unable to see well the path, into a dish he fell He cried out for help shaking his whiskers but the animals only laughed, sang and danced; “Save yourself, who knows not your tricks? The one who comes down to save you will end in your stomach, the animals sang”.
