Lion, jackal and vulture
Went along on their way:.
To each other they showed culture
And divided their pray.
The bird was watching from the highs
And when it saw some deer:
It gave a signal to the guys
The jackal lurked near,
 It chased the deer in direction,
Where the lion sprang,
And there was not a real protection
From this wicked gang.
 But destiny expressed its might
And didn’t let things go:
A poison snake did deadly bite
The lion on the paw.
Experiencing awful pain
The lion cried for water:
But he was hoping all in vain:
The jackal didn’t bother.
 The lion burned in cruel fever :
It asked the bird for shade:
Bird’s heart did slightly quiver:
But still its friend betrayed.
In life you take some care:
When you choose a friend :
A lot of them take when you share,
But aren’t beside in the end.
