Animals - with audio

audio link


FOX
The fox once caught
Will try to convince
His captor that he
Is the one ensnared

PIG FOR A STY
A pig for a sty
A ring for his nose
A laborer wallowing
In food, drink and mud
A slaughter

OLD BEAR
The old bear
Will not leave the trash
Unless shot
He dies a slow
Ugly death
Yet allow him to live
Again and Again
To the trash he goes
Close by the house
Until one day
A life is taken

THE COCK CROWS
The cock crows
Nudged by the unseen
So that the world
Might know
That all
Have been cared for
During the night

A LION'S LIFE
A lion's life
Full of pride
Is a lonely life

Swimming In The Tides - with audio


audio link

Death comes soon enough
No need to sit and wait
One block falls another is set in its place
A baby is born an old man dies

Swimming in the tides
Is not a task of leisure
It is however one way
of telling the live fish
from the dead

Reflect and Remember - with audio

audio link

The greatest plagues
Attack not the body
But the mind

Memory is a dancer
Just beyond my reach
So, I am learning to dance
