The Lion and the Mouse

Born with the pride of the mighty lion

Living the life of a scared closet mouse

Feeding in the lonely hours,

Sleeping at the break of dawn



In solitude the lion lives and feeds

Majestic and fierce. Fearless and shameless.

Ruling all within his domain

and fearing none that threatens



The mouse is lurking at dawn

Running and hiding. Fearing and fighting.

The mouse only reigns within the corner

Away from all harm and danger



The lion wants to come out,

But the mouse prefers to hide inside.

This epic battle between the cat and mouse,

Goes on much longer then they would prefer.



The day has finally come to an end

And it’s time to retreat.

Who will rise and rule tomorrow?

Will it be the mighty lion or the scared mouse?
