A Vulture's Lesson

Like a vulture cultivate patience skills Horned into an art beyond a craft So polished skills kill your bills As you reach out for your reward raft. Like a vulture scan the environment To survey the lay of the land As opportunity at the right moment Moves the priceless prize towards your hand. Like a vulture rush not into the fray Where competitors vie to eat their fill While you bid your time and a ray Of hope lights up your path on a hill. Like a vulture wait for the opportune occasion To sink in your bill and eat morsels Meant as your share in due season With minimal effort parcels and tussles.

I like it. Fond of all birds, vultures too, lovely to see them in a more flattering light than their usual dark implications. Good stuff :)
