Chariots of Fire

Ebony and Ivory If my feathers were black and I was compared to a White Owl I would feel very wise indeed ... If my hair were black and I was compared to a chimpanzee I would feel cute , inquisitive,  cheeky , beautiful and lovely swinging free from tree to tree .. If my feathers were white and I was compared to a Black Eagle I would feel strong ... If my hair were white and I was compared to a silver back gorilla I would feel like the king of the jungle , King Kong , A Mogul Mum Chariots Of Fire ...It's good to be me , my feathers of a Wise Owl protected by the Eagle My hair of a chimpanzee , that's me, living under the canopy of an old oak tree , the sunlight dancing on an autumn leaf .... How beautiful this morning is to me fleur-de-lis, the dance of a bee minor anthropology Upon my Ebony and Ivory . Bee happy
