Berries and Scientist

Once Scientist was walking through the forest,
And looking for Berries of different colors.
Suddenly he saw unimaginable amount of Berries,
Which grew right on the forest path.

Scientist was a great specialist in Berries,
He knew everything about Berries and their nature.
But these Berries that grew on the path
Were very strange and incomprehensible.

One Berry was green, the other was round,
The third was motley, and the fourth was generally striped.
Scientist realized how meager his knowledge was.
It seems that he knew nothing about Berries at all.

But then Berries started talking to Scientist,
They told how they live in the forest.
Scientist was surprised to the core,
He learned a lot from this conversation
And thanked Berries for lecture.
He said that now he knows much more than before.

Scientist still remembers that bright day,
When Berries shared new knowledge with him.
Therefore, do not forget that each Berry
Has its own history and its own way.
Who knows, maybe some ordinary Berry
Will be the best teacher in your life.
