Don't walk into the woods




Said ,mama to her daughter
"My darling sweetheart
Promise this before you leave
Before we two depart.
Don't go into the woods
My little Red Riding Hood
My darling my daughter don't go into the woods."

"For there be wild animals
And also a Big Bad Wolf
Go through the town ,
I say this to you for your own good."

"Buy flowers from the florist
And cake from the baker's
But please my darling sweetheart
Avoid the woods ,and its predators."

"Bye mama ! dont you worry
I'll heed to your advise
And go through the roads, with those neon lights .
There will be no darkness,and no four legged beast
But what !! if some animal comes in the garb of a ,'priest'?"

"What will I do when my screams
will fall on deaf ears??
What will I do when the milling crowd
Will swiftly change its gears??
What !! if the passersby !, will look the other way !!
When some vote seeker will snatch my hood away??

"Mama tell you this
The jungle is very safe
A wolf however bad ; will attack
Only if hunger sways.
There 's hope that a woodcutter
Going on his way,
May help ,and protect me ;
He will never look away."

"The two legged beasts
The cowards all around
Will leave me all alone
To fight the human hound."

"So mama don't  you  worry
I know my lessons fine
Will run into the jungle
when the civil animals arrive.

I will hide into the safety
Of the wild animals den
I know they will protect me
From my own bretheren"

GOD'S best creations!!!
Are they ???? 
So say the learned men !!!!!!!
