Living in Harmony

There are people who in this world do not believe in living in harmony. This is due to many differences that includes tribal, cultural, financial and much more. The story that is told in the poem below is to serve to teach us how to live in harmony with those who we believe are different from us and thus unworthy to live with us. It is very important to learn to live in harmony with everyone in the society.

Enjoy.

Living in Harmony 

Mr. Dog, Mr. Cat and meek Mr. Mouse

Together they live in one small house

Their friendship is greater that the sun shine

And to them life on earth is just very fine

Much as they so much love their dear wives

They love helping each other in their lives

Mr. Dog’s wife is nursing three puppies

And recently she bought numerous nappies

For Mrs. Cat’s kittens she gave her ten

For Mrs. Mouse who gave birth so often

She gave her two score and eight

And teased her, “Stop sexing every night”

Mr. Mouse went into his account to withdraw some money

On his way home, he bought a barrel of honey

On reaching home, Mrs. Cat joyfully welcomed him

He asked,” is everybody really in the farm?”

Mrs. Cat answered, “Yes they are all planting rice”

Mr. Mouse commented, “Wow! That is very nice”

Then he subdivided his honey into three equal parts

For his family, for dogs’ and for the cats

One kitten once became very ill

And this caused much sorrow to all

Amongst themselves they passed the hat round

They really wanted miss kitten to be sound

They had her admitted in a private hospital

But her tropical fever got much fatal

She got much worse and she finally died

They all mourned and they bitterly cried.
