One doesn't realize it but animals do a lot of teaching. They not only have to teach their own, but humans as well...and at any age.

Wisdom


 


I have lived for many years little one


And there is much I have to teach you.


Don’t pull my tail,


It’s rather fragile.


Please don’t put it in your mouth either


I tend to get chapped tail.


Just pet my head…gently,


No bobbing please,


It gives me a neck ache.


You can rub my tummy,


It makes me sleepy.


Now, now little one


Don’t bite my ears,


Now you’re drooling in them.


Can’t you just hold me close?


So I can hear your heart beat,


So I can feel your warmth?


There are so many things I have to teach


But I will be patient young one


Because you have a long time to grow up
