THE PERSPICACIOUS GOAT

                                 (JAI MA KALI )
       THE  PERSPICACIOUS GOAT
      ******************************
      Once upon a time a raveneously hungry lion was moseying in a jungle in search of a prey.He happened to see a chubby goat on a jagged tump feeding on desiccated grass.The sight of the goat multiplied his hunger manyfold.But as he was incapable of mounting the tump, he thought of a flimflam to make the goat clamber down.He mildly tweetered,
"Hi Miss Goat, how do you do ? "
"Hi Sir! I am in fine fettle.Thank you, sir," baaed the goat.
"I observe you have become lean and thin by feeding on shrivelled grass.Can't you see the scrumptious green grass down here? Get down and eat to your heart's content.you will regain your lost weight",cajoled the lion.
  The goat was fully aware of the lion's ulterior motives in cajoling her to climb down.She bleated,
   "I certainly see the green grass, but I also see a famished lion standing there waiting for a prey.I will sojourn here further."
   The lion sussed that the goat was perspicacious enough to be fooled into coming down.He slinked away having egg on his face.
