The rhino is a big mountain range. When he comes, the earth shakes. On his back he carries a small bird.

The rhino dreams of being as light as the little bird on its back. But he is needed for his stability, the food he provides and to be a protector.

The little bird would like to be as heavy as the rhino, so it will not be blown back and forth by the storm.

Everyone wants to be different but each animal is perfect the way they are.

    Here comes Rhinoceros.
    Beautiful as a mountain.

    A tiny bird settles on his back,
    gentle as a snowflake,
    and chirps.
    A tiny bird,
    a fellow traveller
    who flies away too soon.
