     Friendship

    A poem by Mediana Stan, illustrated by Szitai György-Ferenc, translated by Rafael Manory

     

    Mr. HorseRadish, the mouse, works on his boat,
    Cuts some reeds, some stuff he loads.
    The wind blew across... woof
    The stalks flying off the roof.
     
    A pelican comes along,
    Ties reeds with a pair of tongs,
    Helping  the mouse Mr. HorseRadish.
    Casually he grabs a fish.
     
    The reeds now make a loud noise,
    The strong wind blows and annoys.
    The mouse hurries, wants to try
    From pelican’s pouch, fish to fry.
