Rules

Beside the tree, beneath the hills, There is a dark and deep valley, With the most fragrant flowers, And lo! Self-ruling?! Nay! They live by the rules of their Creator. Look at the oceans! Oh vast and wide with their colourful seasons! Varying from warmer to colder To deeper and darker And lo! Self-ruling?! Nay! They live by the rules of their Creator. Look at the birds of the air, They never farm nor work, They look upto their creator And are fed And lo! Self-ruling?! Nay! They live by the rules of their Creator Oh and look who’s here, Ungrateful and disobedient creature, With four limbs, Self-ruling?! Aye,aye, They live by their own rules!
