I like monkeys
I like monkeys
they’re one of my fav animals in the world
I like monkeys
I like monkeys
I like monkeys
I love them so much
Animals here animals there
Animals animals everywhere
I see insects over there underneath those rocks
and puppies over there playing with their clocks.
Animals here animals there
Animals animals everywhere
I see birds up ahead
and cats in their beds.
Animals here animals there
Animals animals everywhere
I see fishes swimming in the sea
don’t you think that’s where they should be?
Animals here animals there
Animals animals everywhere
We love you
We appreciate you and we need you.
RUNNER UP
Searching for nuts.
Quick as lightning, quiet as a whisper.
Under the golden leaves of autumn,
In the hollow trunks of trees.
Reaching out for the final acorn.
Running along the tops of fences,
Evading the neighbour’s chasing dog.
Leaping home joyfully with a plump nut.
Look!
In the sky!
Flutter Flutter Flutter!
All the beautiful colors shining in the sunlight.
Butterflies Butterflies what a beautiful sight to see.
You only live a few days but you make it a wonderful time to be!
The fox is cunning
With piercing eyes that sear your soul
As you try to look away your are stuck
Petrified by those black beady eyes
It’s as if with one look you have crystallized
Made to be completely clear, transparent, naked.
You try to run but your feet remain firmly grounded.
Frozen in place
Forced to be judged by a creature that man has labelled dumb.
