Only A Tiger (Nursery Rhyme #48) Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Only A Tiger (Nursery Rhyme #48)

Rating: 5.0


Only a Tiger will approach a Tiger,
Lions never do

To give him pause and make him think,
"What will this Tiger do"

All other beasts he rests cocksure,
a meal they will become

But faced with one of his own kind
—to stay or then to run

The left and right cannot seem to face each other without one devouring the other. So who is the lion and the tiger? Perhaps let the children decide for one day they will devour us all.
