Above the gate of the Ministry the sign read:
Some are wise and some are otherwise.
'Next', said the cabbage.
Zucchini stepped forward.
'You have something substantial to suggest? '
asked the cabbage.
'Two new proposals, your honor',
said the Zucchini:
'A. Let's put traffic lights
for the frogs in the park.
B. Demolish the bridge over the brook
and replace it
with trampolines.
The pedestrians can jump
to the other side.
It would be cheaper
than maintaining the bridge.
Furthermore, this would be also good
for health, providing good exercise.'
The cabbage scratched its bald head.
'Well', said it, 'we need the money now
for putting traffic lights for the cats.
So forget about the frogs.
On the other hand, the trampoline
is an excellent idea.
We just have to make the brook wider
and then people who fall into the water
will have a chance to swim too.'
