Goliath And The Snake

Goliath walked proudly and graciously

Tapped a snake, coiled up and resting

On a rock warm and cozy

Woah! Sprang up Goliath

At the gaze of his prey to be

"You disturbed my nap"

Then followed another tap, a cautious one

"Don't! " snake straightens up to fight

To put things right

Goliath puts on his innocent face

Took a few steps back, one at a time

Sat down, as if admitting his folly

Oh Goliath! my sweet, little cat

You remind me of how

We create our own troubles

When we have none
