United Animal Organization

The tension was in the air
As members started to arrive
Squirrels peeped through the bushes
When they reached location, all five
 
It was an important Council meeting
Of the World Animal Organization
Leopard, elephant, bear and wolf came
Lion no doubt was the Chairman
 
With a thunderous roar the lion
Called the meeting in order
As small animals ran with speed
Eagles swirled high in the air
 
“We discuss an important matter”
Lion started the opening address
“As the most powerful in the jungle
We are responsible to control, redress
 
We have our own law of jungle
Working smoothly for many years
There never were any problems
Now we are seeing doubts and fears
 
Humans are now misusing our law
We must pay our full attention
Fellow animals feel threatened
Some even started asking question
 
Humans want have more power
They are killing humans for same
World is seeing a lot of destruction
Giving our Jungle Law a bad name
 
We are contend with our powers
And use it according our traditions
We must convince fellow animals
We will not follow human’s actions”
 
Completing, lion looked to leopard
Who in a very aggressive manner
Expressed his anger against humans
And unhappiness over animal behavior
 
It was then elephant’s turn to talk
“We can do nothing against humans
They are more powerful than all of us
We need brains fighting against humans”
 
Bear expressed agreement with elephant
And requested the lion to call the fox
Being known for her high wisdom
She may give advice in or out of box
 
Wolf asked to give his point of view
Found the suggestion too hasty
First must we  five discuss options
And later discuss them with foxy
 
Lion decided summon fox at once
She arrived soon looking pale and weak
When lion asked her about the reason
She conveyed with signs, couldn’t speak
 
She was told  the matter discussed
And was asked to give her best advice
Through signs she asked for a few days
To recover and give five her best advice
 
She was given three days by Council
And told to come same time and place
She looked very relieved and happy
Thanking, left immediately in high pace
 
Three days later they all were there
Fox looked fine having regained voice
“Let humans continue their doing”
Fox confidently presented her advice
 
“Humans the most powerful on planet
And we animals are second to them
They sure are going to destroy humanity
Nobody anywhere can ever stop the stem
 
Once they are gone we will rule earth
Nobody then can stop us from doing so
As for fellow animal’s worries and fears
I have a very good advice for them also
 
Make animals committee minus you five
And ask them to discuss whole situation
Give them maximum seven days for it
To present objective unanimous opinion”
 
“What if their opinion we don’t like”
Impatient leopard said in a stinging voice
“You forget, I too will be in the committee
How unanimous opinion can be otherwise”
 
Lion thanked the fox and she left meeting
Council then deliberated in very detail
And decided unanimously adopt the advice
Expecting success and no chance to fail
