Once upon a time long ago
A Mountain went furious on a Mouse,
Who was hurting him deep down
With his teeth, he was digging a house.

"Hey, you!" Called the Mountain.
"Don't you dare dig me anymore!
Don't you know how strong I am?
How dare you to dig my floor?"

"I am sorry, Mr Mountain
You surely are older than me,
But not more strong you are.
What can you do? Let me see."

"Oh, foolish fellow! You don't know
I can stop the clouds in the sky.
Can you do it? You're so small.
Look, I am so big and so high."

"Hmm. You are gigantic indeed,
And you can stop the clouds.
But can you stop me? You can't.
Why are you then so proud?"

"You can stop the clouds but I can
Mix you with the soil flat,
You won't be able to stop me
Then how are you stronger than a rat."

"Now remember this lifetime.
I know yours is longer than mine.
But never again be proud of yourself
Whatever you are you're fine."

Poet's Note

Hey reader,

I'll never be proud of myself but I want others to be proud of me. And you all can help me reach those levels.
