The Circle of Life
March 13, 2013
The sun’s heat rears its head,
The plants shoot up from their soil bed.
A wild whipping wind blows,
Into the deer’s mouth, the plant goes.
An eerie silence fills the air,
Still the deer frolics without a care.
BANG! With just a point and aim,
The hunter picks up his head game.
The man forgot something though,
His mistake a tale of woe.
For it had been a scorching sunny day,
And from skin cancer, he passes away.
But don’t be filled with strife,
For it is only the circle of life.
It happens every day,
There is no other way.
