4.f. Julie Andrews, we are not
The singing is short-lived, even a baboon knows when *enough is enough.
“WHEN YOU READ YOU BEGIN WI…….”
[hehe... Julie Andrews we are not]
“To make it more interesting I shall attempt to multi-task,
undertaking a Sun-salutation during this first master-class!”

*In this case the sudden appearance of several fish floating by belly-up alerted him.
4.e. A very good place to start..
Crocodiles and Mosquitoes often *sing duets on the Zambezi River.
“Start at the very beginniiing..”
“A VERY GOOD PLACE TO STAAART!”

*This is a fact, although they’re usually only allowed to pitch in during the chorus.
4.d. General dumbfoundment…
While Mr. Garwe mulls the current situation over, Gudo has a flash of divine inspiration that slices right through Space and Time in the *Ku frequency range (at around 12.5 GHz, sorry not to have the EXACT figure), unfortunately (and fortunately for yours truly) it was just an idea, not the entire movie.
“Are you all so confused? That’s not a good sign.
Although.. it clears up one or two things, that I’ve heard through the vine!”
“But less about that! Idle gossip’s not my intention.
We’ll take some advice from a film…
… in another
DIMENSION
..so ..
.. let’s”

*For the purists
4.c. Sun salutation abandoned…
Taken aback by the lack of comprehension and general bewilderment, Gudo slips and hits his chin on the log. * This is not part of the pose.
“So this thing is a “metaphor”?
- it seems so **complex and random”
Gudo collapsed from his Asana,
Sun-salutation abandoned.
[I'm starting to wonder,
if I may have ***jumped the gun]
He snuck a peak at the croc,
who was pretending not to look stunned…

*For all you potential yogis.
**Metaphors can be, especially bad ones.
***He had.
4.b. It’s a metaphor, silly! or “Extended Downward Facing Dog”
It’s not easy being a guru. Or a Dad-with-all-the-answers for that matter. Just ask Calvin’s Dad!
“But I have a question to ask…
This gadget sounds uncomfortable,
is it literally lodged in my heart?”
“I used a *metaphor silly, it’s a figure of speech.
A way to explain something that’s just out of reach.
When I likened your heart to that amazing machine,
I never meant to mislead you – that’s just not my scene!”

4.a. Back to the Sultry Zambezi… or “Downward Facing Dog”
Back on the River, Gudo is performing his morning *yoga, paused momentarily in “**Downward Facing Dog”, while he waits for Tad’s congratulations for a difficult concept explained so clearly and concisely.
So that was a fine story from the white frozen wastes!
(A stark contrast to the Zambezi where Mr. Gudo awaits)
… with his spirit riding high, post -nostalgic recount.
When a little voice below caused a spiritual dismount…
“Excuse me monkey-dad … SIR?”

†I nearly used the word “sissies”, and then I suddenly realised that I am probably thought of as one in certain circles! (In the same way that Gareth Thomas is of course … haha.)
3.g. The Worthy, Yet Untrusty Penguins finally hear the point to the story..
And the lesson here is that once you have audience you must *make the most of it! Maybe there’ll be some fish in it for you 
So hear this, o worthy,
yet untrusty penguins,
you all have these feelings,
and they’re there for a reason…… if you become more aware,
more alert to that voice
you’ll avoid bad decisions
and make the right choice!
