“The Law of the Jungle”
Wash daily from nose-tip to tail-tip; drink deeply, but never
too deep;
And remember the night is for hunting, and forget not the day
is for sleep.
The Jackal may follow the Tiger, but, Cub, when thy whiskers
are grown,
Remember the Wolf is a Hunter -- go forth and get food of
thine own.
Keep peace with the Lords of the Jungle -- the Tiger, the
Panther, and Bear.
And trouble not Hathi the Silent, and mock not the Boar in his
lair.
When Pack meets with Pack in the Jungle, and neither will
go from the trail,
“One Inch
Tall”
by Shel Silverstein
If you were only one inch tall,
you'd ride a worm to school.
The teardrop of a crying ant would be your
swimming pool.
A crumb of cake would be a feast
And last you seven days at least,
A flea would be a frightening beast
If you were one inch tall.
This is only the first stanza.
