An Alpha Wolf's Tale

An Alfa Wolf’s Tale

As you can see I have retained my

Dominant expression; far from submission.

Yesterday a horse kicked me on the head,

While I was hunting in the wrong position.

I was the leader of my pack

Until that old horse I was hunting

Showed he knew how to act

When he used his head for bunting.

Now I journey on without family

Alone and very very angry.

Now that I have passed away,

I have become a demon.

The Bald Eagle Speaks

The Bald Eagle Speaks

Being one of North America’s largest Birds

 The feeling of responsibility is almost beyond my words

My over 7000 feathers help me keep from harm

And during the winter they keep me warm.

I am a symbol of freedom and escape from strife

Independence is the symbol of my life

Yes among birds I seek be in charge.

That’s in part because I am very large.

You humans need examples that I will share.

Once I got a wife I was always be there

Even though she’s bigger than me

She does not try to scare,

So, while there still those who like to shoot me

I will continue to be one of America’s beauties

And fly through the air on life long duties

And sing; My Country Tiss of Thee

Mama Bear and Her Baby

      Mama Grizzly Bear and her Baby

Her hair looks grayish and brown;

Seen in Grizzlies all over the world.

But this meadow is hers and

No other animal will try to take it.

For them the task is too tough.

In B.C.’s hot summer sun,

She looks at her cub in silence;

With only an occasional grunt.

She knows that world’s humans

Are not likely to come there to hunt.

She looks down at her baby

And gives a deep sigh

Her last little ones, after only

Six months, had started to die.

And left her quite lonely

Now, in the sunshine of summer

She cuddles her young one

In warm wonderful heat

And reaches down for more grass

Something she decides to eat

Venus Earth's Neighbor

Venus, Earth’s Evil Twin

While Venus de Milo, the statue, is noted for her charm,

Venus the planet is noted for its harm.

Venus de milo, is a creation of female love;

While Venus the planet; evolved in the sky above.

Both Earth and Venus circle in similar paths

And both planets are together near the sun

But unlike other planets in the system

Venus the planet travels backwards

In the opposite direction; the only one

There are other things about Venus

You might like to know

First, it has the System’s brightest light

Following the Sun and Moon

It’s brighter in the sky than any star.

Its surface has been compared to molten lead

With active volcanoes all over the place

Even if we could stand on it we’d be crushed and dead

More than other planets, Venus is the hotter

And it has not even a touch of water

Finally, the Earth rotates the Sun in 24 hours

Venus takes 10 times as long

I Wondered What To Do With You

I wondered What To Do With You

                             The Cat

When first you came into my sight

My instinct told me to take a bite

Then I thought we ought fight

But learning tells me that’s not right

                             The Duckling

Yea, when I first saw you

I knew in an instance that

I must keep my distance

But with time I learned

That you’re ok to be around

                          The Cat and Duckling Together

We sit here

Looking at each other

Both with different kinds of mother

And now we can live with

One another

An Unusual Friendship

An Unusual Friendship

The cat and dog look up into the sky. 

They see angry birds and the cat wonders.

While growing up she’s been quite shy.

With few words to other cats and

Nobody with whom to play.

Now in a garden flowerpot she and the dog sit together

Looking at the birds; all of the same feather.

But the birds attack each other

And they really seem full of hate.

When the cat met the dog with whom she sits

Both were young and somewhat scared but;

During their early years the same space is shared.

She was young and so was he.

And getting together seemed destined to be

The dog became the oldest pup in his family

When his brother came on board

And he had learned to adjust

So when he met the cat he did so calmly. 

Watching the birds squawk at each other

The cat wonders if that could happen

To her and the dog.

The dog is more curious than fearful.
