All God's Creatures

So many creatures that God did make - some live in the mountains, some swim in the lake. Many are large, many are small, many are short, and many are tall. They all have a purpose - this I know and trust - kindness to all of them from us is a must. The giraffes eat from up top the trees - it must be amazing all they can see. The lion is the king, with a ferocious roar - the eagle is majestic as above us it does soar. Dogs and cats give us loyalty and love - their dedication and companionship could only come from above. Snakes move silently - they slither on the ground - they sneak up on their prey without a single sound. Dolphins swim playfully in the deep blue sea - they are just as smart as you and me. Insects and rodents are everywhere a man looks - On them alone could be written a million books. I could go on and on for many, many pages - the point I want to make must be applied to people of all ages. We owe it to all of God’s other creatures to live in harmony and peace - the senseless cruelty and outright neglect must right now simply cease. The world is plenty big enough for them, you, and I - we can all live together if we are just willing to try.
