There was once two jolly cows,
Grazing the greens the Earth endows.
Day after day they grazed and grazed
happily under the Sun or haze.
One day one of them looked further away
and realised there are more greens the other way!
Yet there's a river wide and deep
to be crossed only if they leap.
The cows know they are no great leapers,
as lousy as they'll be if they are swimmers.
They stared long at those emerald blades,
wishing all would be on their plates.
They continued to reap their grass
while staring in the other glass.
Before long one of them said:
"Why don't we try and jump with faith?"
The other replied in a solemn tone:
"We'll never make it with our flesh and bones."
The former wanted to go across,
to the other side even if it takes all force.
The latter wanted to stay the same
as the idea of crossing seemed insane!
So the first cow walked close to the bank
while the second will pray if the first one sank.
The water was choppy, fast and swift,
if she falls into the river she sure will drift.
The first cow hesitated for awhile
and thought: Hell, the jump will be worth the while.
Hence she stepped back and gathered her courage
and dashed forward like a bull in rage.
In a moment the hooves are alight,
there's the cow literally in flight!
There was a thump and she looked around,
she had crossed the river safe and sound!
The second cow stared in disbelieving eyes,
her jaws dropped, and gave a long sigh.
Now the first cow ate the grass
but they tasted the same, alas!
However, she felt satisfied
because she ventured to gain her new find.
She yelled back to her timid friend
to ask her to leap whenever she can,
as the feeling of satisfaction from the leap
is more than all the grass they ever reaped.
The second cow pondered and pondered,
"Can I ever make it?" she always wondered.
She decided to stay on her side
and eat her grass bite by bite.
Under the blue sky and bright afternoon Sun,
two cows are grazing until they are done.
The cow who leaped had won her game
even though the grass tastes the same.
The cow who stayed can only assume
the taste of the grass her friend consumes!

ReplyDeletethe leap is the one that gives satisfaction..
This is good stuff. It's in venturing out that we learn what we can do. Reminds me of a saying I heard, that the journey is what makes the trip worth it.
