The Birds and Bees

On the outskirts of that city were many beautiful trees and creepers encircling a nice lake. Also surrounding that lake were many groups of birds and bees that were always chanting and humming. The branches of the trees standing on the bank of the lake received particles of water. In such an atmosphere, even the animals of the forest became non violent, non envious, like the great sages. Consequently, the animals did not attack anyone. Over and above everything was the cooing of the cuckoos.
