Game Reserve
As great river crosses the land
On its beach there is sand
On its banks zebras came to drink
Wary of crocodiles that might drag them to water and sink
At both banks ancient trees
Stretch as far as eye sees
They define this primordial land
There are creatures here nowhere else found
The Nunda mysterious huge grey cat
To animals and humans is a serious threat
But no specimen exists in any zoo
This is only place to find it until it will do
On the other side of the river mountains stand tall
Like picture of wildernesses’ soul
Their awe inspiring presence is
As they stand surrounded by mist of aerial abyss
The mist around the mountains is like a ghost
As the fearsome Nunda terrorizes the coast
Different feeling mountains give
Like any prayer they are ready to receive
When vortex of shadow king
Opens as wild dogs sing
This vortex is to everything
What great temporal vortex to universe will bring
The vortex grows in a dimensional shift
Creating divine rift
And if this is an ability
The spiritual frame gives the ability
But how long will this place exist
Hidden by apparition like mist
Will my small nephew hear of this land
Or will it be swallowed by time like river is swallowed by sand
