WHY NOBODY PETS THE LION AT THE ZOO John Ciardi The morning that the world began The Lion growled a growl at lVlan. And I suppose the Lion might Clf he'd been closer? have tried a bite. I think that's as it ought to be And not as it was taught to me. I think the Lion has a right To growl a growl and bite a bite. And it the Lion bothered Adam, He should have growled right back at 'im. The way to treat a Lion right Is growl for growl and bite for bite. True, the Lion is better fit For biting than for being bit. But if you look him in the eye You'Il find the Lion's rather shy. He really wants someone to pet him. The trouble is: his teeth won't let him. He has a heart of gold beneath But the Lion just can't trust his teeth.
