BIGGEST AMONGST THE FIVE || The Call of the Wild
By Sonny Mncedisi Dube I toil, I trudge and I turn. Mr Rhinoceros is my name, Sometimes I do think Mr Poacher is insane On a relentless chase, to him my suffering is game, Unbeknownst to him is that I am the ultimate game He so zealously hunts and haunts my soul. Bringing terror to the wild seems to be his only call, How I wish I could fly or even silently crawl; Beneath the bushes just to save my precious soul. How I wish the rangers could catch and throw him in jail, That his ill-fated exploits may as a consequence fail. Am I the biggest amongst the five? That I should give my life as the ultimate price! The five cannot be big if short of a single life, Please heed the call of the wild , save the Rhino , save the Big Five.
