Look inside this tiger’s mind

As if you weren’t a human being

Captivating, his eyes watch all

Think about what he’s seeing

Gazing over the jungle lands

Is it his next meal he’s seeking?

Or is he content to loll around

Undisturbed, but ever peeking

A predator by nature, he waits

Until the time is right to strike

Til then he’s happy just to gaze

In a state that’s quite dreamlike

Much like a winding forest path

I allow my mind to meander

To get lost in the quietude

And silently breathe in nature’s bliss

It was quite unexpected, made her unsteady

Weak in the knees, though she knew, she was ready

The icy cold water, was nothing to fear

The wave took her under, freedom was near

She didn’t fight it, it was what she awaited

Back to the sea, where her life was created

No longer wishing to be human, unkind

She knew now, to never leave the ocean behind

Graces beauty with twilight

As night approaches

A place to loll away the hours

Basking in the shade or sun

Under canopies of emerald green

Until the light of day is done

A sanctuary, a hidden treasure

One to keep you safe and warm

A place you can call your very own

Protection, from approaching storms

I marvel how you build your home

Each piece so carefully interwoven

And soon I grasp, just why it is

The reason this branch was chosen
