Deep in a forest stood a very tall tree. Its leafy branches spread out like strong arms. This tree
the home of a flock of wild geese. They felt safe there. One of the geese was a wise old bir
noticed a small creeper at the foot of the tree. He spoke to the other birds about it. "Do ye
that creeper?" he said to them. "Let us destroy it". "Why must we destroy it?" asked the geese in
surprise. "It is so small. What harm can it do?" "My friends," replied the wise old bird, "that little
creeper will soon grow. As it creeps up this tree, it will become thick and strong." "What of that?"
asked the geese. "What harm can a creeper do us?" "Don't you see?" replied the wise bird, "with
the help of that creeper, it will be possible for someone to climb this tree. A hunter can come up
and kill us all." "Well there's no hurry," they replied, "the creeper is very small. It would be a pity
to destroy it now." "Destroy the creeper while it is still young," the old bird advised. "Now it is
tender and you can cut it easily. Later it will become hard and you will not be able to cut it." "We'll
see, we'll see," answered the birds. But they did not destroy the creeper. They forgot the wise old
bird's advice. As the creeper grew, it began winding its way up the tree.
