MY GREEN CROCODILE
This crocodile was different from other crocodiles
He loved flowers
One day he found himself in a lovely meadow
And there...
...he met a beautiful cow
She said "You're a strange crocodile, sniffing flowers"
"Yes" said the crocodile
"I like them"
"Me too" said the cow
Surely if they both liked flowers and leaves...
...they could love each other
Like any lover he read poems, but in crocodile language
They loved each other very much, but nobody believed it
They said "It's impossible"
"They're so different"
"Such a beautiful cow, such an ugly crocodile"
They wanted to be together because they had so much in common;
the flowers and the leaves
Everyone said "Can't you see?"
"You're so beautiful"
"And he's so green"
"Look at him"
"What do you see in him?"
The cow thought about it
Then the autumn came
"It's all over" said the cow
"We've nothing in common. The flowers are gone"
"So are the leaves"
The crocodile didn't know what to do
"Surely love doesn't depend on flowers" he cried
"Yes, and on leaves too" answered the cow
Then the crocodile decided to turn into a green leaf
The cow fell in love again
It doesn't matter what you look like
If you're in love, you'll do something beautiful
Maybe become a green leaf
THE END
