Marcella the lion cub was bored with life

It was adventure that he wanted to find

He crossed the raging river so deep and wide

But on the other side and nowhere to hide

He cried for his mum to come to rescue him

She smacked his bum, and they swam back to the pride

Till next time,

Calvin

    Adorable! Reminds me of my toddler who likes to run off and do things on her own.
