“Show” negates “Tell”

If you’re a Dog making Noise in the Park,
you Don’t have to Tell me That you can Bark.

If you’re a Fish in the Ocean’s Rim,
you Don’t have to Tell me That you can Swim.

If you’re a Deer afraid of a Gun,
you Don’t have to Tell me That you can Run.

If you’re a Snake with Rattles in Sight,
you Don’t have to Tell me That you can Bite.

If you’re a Cat who likes Petted Fur,
you Don’t have to Tell me That you can Purr.

If you’re a Frog on a Lilly Clump,
you Don’t have to Tell me That you can Jump.

Act like an Ass – when All’s said and Done,
you Don’t have to Tell me you “Really are One!”
