I Wonder

i wonder when the vultures feast, do they hope for their next meal? i wonder when lions feed on what their harem provide, do they feel proud,or just loved? i wonder when frogs gave up swimming and try leaping for better ponds: do they look inside the water to see their new green skin? i wonder what we have that animals don't. we have nothing,friends, nothing new. we have old things in new images, and communicated in such a way we forget the ways silence connect.

At times, it does wonders to actually wonder about the other creatures, from their perspective. I think we will learn a lot from them. A thought-provoking write. Mr. Hsu. I especially liked the one about the frogs... thanks for passing by my non-poem. That was just me, thinking aloud. Wondering the cause of the spike in my views. I just found it super odd, that's all. And I see some other Soupers have had the same experience, so maybe it is a glitch?

Thank you and hi there :) I read some of your poems and really like some of the images you used. I have not had that happened to me but sometimes the site hangs me when i am scrolling down poems. Maybe you can write a poem about the glitch :)
