Aren’t We Special

sorenbarrett

Whether husband or wife I don’t wish you strife, your feelings I don’t wish to spoil

But throughout life, infidelities are rife and an octopus is more loyal

Blood is thicker than water whether son or daughter but a stronger family has a pachyderm

Greater than any other is the love of a mother but the most giving mother is a sea worm

Humans are fine but not divine a better social system has the ant

Greater internal technology and less pathology has the average plant

If you think you are strong you are wrong for their size most animals are stronger

A shark can hear its prey from over a mile away and a wolf can run far longer

Bats can see in the dark, There’s no better singer than a lark a tortoise gets more old

Fleas jump higher a bird is a better flier, a dog does more of what it’s told

Michael Phelps is great but wait, to swim under water like a fish we can not coach

What is smart? Adaptivity is a start but nothing is more adaptive than a roach
