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.
