Wildebeest

It’s a beautiful landscape of Serengeti animal refuge, Near a parched savannah with skeleton trees, lies a water hole, You see a beautiful picture of animal kingdom paradise, Elephants, zebras, Giraffes, birds, and blue wildebeests, all taking a sip. With the sky overcast with roaming grey clouds, The receding grass land looks yellow and dry, Wildebeests crowd the waterhole, as elephants patiently wait their turn, It’s the lesson for human kind, how to live with others in harmony. Wildebeest migrate every rainy season to dry grass lands, Crossing rivers and lakes, some of them die of drowning, Some are eaten by crocodiles, some fell prey to tigers and lions, Their tenacity of migration, gives us the spirit to survive in hard journeys of life. Wildebeest knows how to share the resources wisely, They let zebras eat the hard grass top, and they eat the soft part underneath, They also migrate in numbers, never forgetting their friendly zebras, Showing us that group effort with friends and family triumphs over solo journeys.
