To A Rhinoceros Poem by Hilaire Belloc

To A Rhinoceros

Rating: 2.7


Rhinoceros, your hide looks all undone,
You do not take my fancy in the least:
You have a horn where other brutes have none:
Rhinoceros, you are an ugly beast.

alas.. the mighty, poor rhinos are exterminated by stupid human beings.. by their greed.. just because of their keratin horn..! They are not 'ugly': they are beautiful, wonderful creatures.. that would only live their peaceful lives..
