Simba's Poetry!

The Lion

The lion runs like the speed of light,
Its sharp jagged teeth glimmer at the sight,
His dinner has finally come,
And the prey starts to run,
He catches up in a flash,
And the innocent prey ends up like mash.

The lion is now fed,
And he’s all ready for bed.
He snores beyond the beautiful night.
Then the sky is lit up with a beautiful light,
As a big bulging ball of red hot fire starts to rise,
His tail lazily swots away the flies.

Leopard

Creeping along the red sandy ground,
The Leopard has his eye on his prey,
Being extremely nimble and quick he gradually gets closer,
And in a flash the spotty figure pounces on its prey,
Lifting the well earned load and taking it up into the trees.

Giraffes are very tall and walk very slow and elegantly.
In the wild they run free.
Reaching up high to food above.
Ahead is the water well where they gallop to get their daily drink.
Feeling warm but keeps on going.
Frightened when prey approaches they run to hide.
Exploring for leaves to rip off trees.
Slumbering giants of the Sahara.

A Lions meal

The Lion creeps across the dry grass,
Ready to pounce and catch its prey.
The zebras elegantly eat grass,
Unaware of their sudden fate.
Then, thump! One of the slowest zebras is down,
Its head hits the ground heavily.

The starving lion cubs wait patiently for their dinner,
They pounce on the zebra,
Trying to enjoy their food,
As they won’t eat for days now.


Prowling Lion

Proud lion’s
Roaming the dangerous forest
Owing the poor creature close to death nothing but its respect
Waiting anxiously tall and still
Loathing that no creature comes his way,
Inspired his stomach has lasted this long
Nose twitches he smells his prey
Grabbing and killing it with no second to spare the lion has its dinner and so it ends there!
