Early Lessons

#WDYS #Lions #Learning #Jungle #Mum #cubs

While the jungle king

sleeps off a night of hunting

his queen is teaching

little charges are taught

the do’s and dont’s of the land

and where they play

they may be princes

but respect for mr elephant

adds a day of life

and snakes and spiders

need to be really observed

down to their venom

    It is imperative to be aware of one’s surroundings always.
