Our world contains many majestic beasts Thousands of mammals, many more of birds Their magnificent grace covers vast lands A splendid variety near and far Hear the snarls and roars of regal big cats Lion and tiger kings of the jungle Mysterious leopards and jaguars roam Stealthy hunters boast hypnotizing eyes Beautiful birds add color to the Earth Kingly Peacock proudly shows his feathers Lovely Macaw displays reds, blues, and greens Flocks of airy beasts dance throughout the sky Wildlife in abundance all can view Exotic creatures of divine beauty Poem prompt: Lannet 14 lines 10 syllables per line Featured in Newsletter "Poetry Newsletter (September 24, 2025)" |
