No Pacts Between Lion and Man Ending
The savanna is filled with sea of grass color of gold
The baobab trees living there are something to behold
As wind creates waves in grass it whispers stories of old
Every day here there is drama about to unfold
Large black mane male lion is impressive in size
But two rogue lions have eyes set on his prize
It is the females in his care harem also of large size
To take the harem is two lion’s prize
The young male fights with fury but is outnumbered and eventually exiled
It is good thing for him as of yet he did not father any child
He is left with scars and nothing else but that what happens in the wild
But male isn’t quite dead and is waiting until eventually fortune upon him has smiled
He raises like a phoenix strengthen by his sorrowful ordeal
He is angry sad but determined and ready to kill
He fights with awe inspiring skill
And his destiny of regaining the pride he manages to fulfill
The fight is bitter and there can be no lack of confidence in lion’s eyes
He has to be cold calculating and above all ready to take the prize
But there are right now more statues of lions then real ones like one that savanna occupies
And if this continues all we will have left of lions is statues with cold empty eyes
When Achilles kills Hector he says there are no pacts between lions and man
But I don’t like that kind of a plan
To live in harmony with animals we can
And I much prefer this plan
And I believe before this century is done
We can come up with great plan
For the both the wildlife and civilization that also is endangered will rise like a sun
Or our world will never recover from damage done
