we are so little
We are so little,
Told me the bird,
If no one thinks of us,
Even the shy rose.
We are so little,
Told me the elephant,
If no one thinks of us,
Even the mighty baobab.
We are so little,
Told me the giraffe
If no one thinks of us,
Even the tormented acacia.
We are so little,
The professor told me,
If no one thinks of us,
Even the reed
Or the pupil with big loving eyes,
We are so little,
Told me the poet,
If no one thinks of us,
Even the robin,
Even the star at night.
