Story Of A Lion And His Kingdom Poem by M. Asim Nehal

Story Of A Lion And His Kingdom

Rating: 5.0


Many a years ago Lion thought of taming the giant Elephant
He began out to constructed a den close to the fortress of Elephant
First the Elephant ignored, but then he realises
What all threats he may have on him and his offspring's freedom
He called upon the Union of wild animals to monitor and help him
Soon they started spying the activities of Lion,
Elephant started building pressure with the aid of the Union
Lion realising his position backed out leaving the idea behind.

After few decades the Elephant grew in numbers and power
Elephant knowing that it cannot confront all alone
It pitched in the jackal with a plan that near Lion's den
A big conspiracy will be built in the name of security
Lion warned Jackal with a stern warning
Jackal approached Elephant to affirm his support
Not only Elephant but Union of wild beast assured
Jackal did not budge before the Lion after assurance
Lion kept repeating that he will not tolerate the actions of Jackal
And finally, the Lion attacked with a mighty roar
All animals backed off and from safe distance started shouting for foul play.
Some said Lion is heartless, cruel and merciless
From outside they showed sympathy towards Jackal
Now he's combating alone, all resources gone
Family dispersed; infrastructure destroyed
Pride gone, self-respect lost all credibility gone
Now on a verge of self-destruction………
