The Menargerie
The white and blue birds soar up to the bright blue sky.
They glide and twist with grace.
Other birds answer their chittery calls.
Tweet!
Dolphins splash and dive into the bright blue water.
They laugh with happiness.
Their reply is answered with a hiss of an anaconda and the gurgle of a frog.
Penguins surge underwater, while cheetahs sprint across the savanah.
Gazzelles zip for an escape and the zebras prance with rhythm.
Lionesses dash fur shade while wild horses gallop across the peaceful meadow.
Riders stroll towards them with saddles and reins and fat cats shuffle around in their sleep.
Poor rat.
A unloved limp rat, lays on the ground dead, with poison invading its blood.
The sheep strain their neck for grass and a goose and its goslings elevate to water.
The murmuring ripples are carried by the wind.
