About
There is wonder past all wonder
In the ways of living things
In a worm's intrepid wriggling
In the song a blackbird sings
In the grandeur of an eagle
And the fury of a shark
In the calmness of a tortoise
On a meadow in the dark
In a fish's joyful splashing
In a snake that makes no sound
In the smallest salamander
There is wonder to be found
-Jack Prelutsky
Now Rann, the Kite, brings home the night
That Mang, the Bat sets free--
The herds are shut in byre and hut
For loosed till dawn are we
This is the hour of pride and power
Talon and tusk and c;aw
Oh hear the call! Good hunting to all
That keep the Jungle Law!
-"Night-Song in the Jungle", Rudyard Kipling
