The Wild


I am the clouds,
I have strong sight and a wise brain,
When I cry, I rain,
I feel moisture rushing through me.

I see mist rising over the lake,
I see the moon glistening,
I see the alligator eating his meal.

The bird has begun to fly to get his wings prepared.
The alligator is going for a swim.
Then, all is silent.
