What The Creatures Say Poem by Raj Arumugam
What The Creatures Say
the donkey jumps
in the fields and says:
Hee-haw! Hee-haw! Hee-haw!
the cat curls
on my sofa
and purrs:
Meow! Meow! Meow!
the cow lies on the grass
chews its cud
and mumbles:
Moo! Moo! Moo!
the lion bites into the flesh
of its prey,
eats heartily
and lies in the shade,
and growls:
Roar! Roar! Roar!
the dog is in the yard
it is night
and it declares:
Bow-wow! Bow-wow! Bow-wow!
the pig is in the mud
rolls back and forth
and goes:
Oink! Oink! Oink!
and man and woman
and the child too
and even the old and infirm
and the dying too,
wherever they all may be,
all these humans say:
Me! Me! Me!
a place we start from to learn the universal language...lovely picture of all animals

This is all so true, especially the last verse where it relates to humans. Well thought out, thank you for sharing :)
