There once was a tiger
Beautiful and perfect in every way
It was the top of its game
Respected everywhere
It was a guardian of the world
It kept darkness at bay for eons
Then one day darkness found its way
It seeped into everything
Turning good to evil
Sweetness to sour
Helpful to selfish
Tolerant to judgmental
Kind to cruel

The tiger felt trapped
There wasn’t much it could do
Though it tried
It asked for help
For the light to come
Nothing happened for some time

Then one day
A warrior came
He was gentle
Smart and kind
He brought the light with him
Everywhere he went
Things began to change
He looked at the tiger
As if giving an order
The tiger nodded
He went where the darkness was heaviest
The tiger knew what to do
It showed its teeth and claws
And whipped its powerful tail around
Sending the darkness away
As he did this the light grew brighter
He looked at the warrior who smiled
And said thank you
Now, let’s begin
