Beware the beast !A Poem by TomIt's a jungle out there folks.....be careful !
Shun the tiger, silent and stealth
searching for its quarry, stay indoors and mind your health or you'll be very sorry! Don't dip your toes, in the water cool where the crocodile patiently waits, for you will look a silly fool if swallowed whole, in front of all your mates! Be watchful of prowling wolf when walking through a leafy wood, run away, should you hear its ghastly howl don't be naive, like little red riding hood! Heed the hyena's mocking laugh hungry for meat, red and raw, let not yourself be chewed in half by its powerful, bone crushing jaw! Avoid the snake in the grass hiding out of sight, keep on the path, don't trespass or you'll receive a poisonous bite! If playing the fine, colonial game in land of mahout and elephant, guard against the mosquito's toxic aim and rebuff it with repellant! Step over the ant, small and placid is my solemn decree, for it is armed with formic acid just like a million brothers, from the colony! And beware the beast, trust the least, a bloodthirsty creature, known as Man, no lethal jaws, rasping claws, poisonous bite, nor acidic might.. But he may kill you...just because he Can? © 2017 TomFeatured Review
