oysters

AN OYSTER

There once was an oyster

Whose story i tell ,

who found that some sand

had gone into his shell

It was only a grain,

but it gav him great pain

For oysters hav feelings

altho they r so plain.

Now, did he berate

The harsh workings of fate

That had brought him

To such a deplorable state?

Did he curse at the govt.

cry for election

and claim that the sea

shud hav given him protection?

No - he said to himself

as he lay on a shell

since i can't remove it,

i shall try to improve it

Now the years hav rolled around,

as the years always do,

and he came to his ultimate

Destiny -Stew

And the small grain of sand

That had bothered him so

was a beautiful pearl

All richly aglow,

now the tale has a moral;

for isn't it grand

What an oyster can do

with a morsel of sand?

what couldn't we do

if we'd only begin

with some of the things

that get under our skin.................

Hope u like it ....
