once upon a time
there was a little bug named bean
bean the bug felt lazy but
had just so many dreams

one morning he decided
to turn all of that around -
“that’s it! i’ll work so hard until
my happiness is found!”

now bean wanted to move his house
he wanted to get strong
he wanted to be famous and
be onstage singing songs

he started with a work out
and ran til he was sore
“if i am to achieve this goal
i’ll have to run even more!”

by lunchtime he was exhausted
but had so much more to do
he decided to start moving house
but fell asleep putting on his shoes!

he woke up by the nighttime
and felt bad about his day:
“why is it i’m so tired
but everything’s still the same?”

next morning sally snail
knocked on bean’s front door
she’d seen him running yesterday
and wanted to know more

bean explained his efforts
and cried into his tea:
“i tried so hard and nothing changed -
maybe it’s just not meant to be.”

“but it’s only been one day!”
said sally, sipping tea herself
“you can’t do everything at once-
please be kinder to yourself.”

so bean began again -
but this time was more slow
he started with moving his stuff
house to house, to and fro

his other goals were put on hold
and though this seemed to take longer
every day bean walked and carried
he grew a little stronger

bean would hum and whistle aloud
when carrying his things
the other bugs in town all heard
“that bean can really sing.”

finally after months gone by,
bean moved home, without the race
he invited all the town bugs to visit
“let’s party in my new place!”

all his friends had piled in:
“looking good! this place is a dream”
one shouted “we heard you sing each day!
will you sing for us now, oh bean?!”

bean smiled, stood up and sang for them
and they cheered! “bravo! divine!”
bean felt quite accomplished -
it just took a little time!

the moral of this story is
to perhaps don’t aim so high
fulfilment is found best
when to yourself, you are gentle and kind.
