Atime
A time for peace, the dove replies
as over the tree-tops he flies.
A time of want...
grumbles, the angry ant,
A time for hunger, roars the lion
with his best tie on.
A time to stop, admire the view
said the giraffe in the zoo.
Silence speaks a thousand words
chatter all the humming birds.
Hee-Haw; hee haw brays the ass
let the time of laughter pass.
Tears come and tears go
rambles tortoise, oh so slow..
A time to live, a time to die
Though only God knows why!
