Character Matters The Most Poem by Ishrat khan

The princess who lived in a small village
All the mother animals she called
And asked them to bring their babies the next day
For she'll give reward whomsoever she finds the cutest of all

The next day princess waits for them to be gathered
All the mother animals arrive with their embellished babies
She looks at each and one of them
And feels delighted except the baby monkey

She is displeasured and disapprove him
Saying 'Ugh! You're the ugly one! '
The baby monkey cries his eyes out
The mother monkey solace him 'The princess is so foolish! , don't cry my son

Don't believe in what she said
You're the most beautiful, most precious my child'
She satisfied him 'Never listen to such beings, be always strong and positive
Cos physical appearance isn't everything my darling but the beautiful heart and mind'
