Giraffe

Giraffe long slim neck
Giant black tongue eats leaves
Beautiful design

Reticulated brown
Outlined in black background of white
Fights like a tiger

They are such magnificent creatures, Sara. Once I had the opportunity to hand feed one. So gently, it lapped up the food from my hand. Great description in this double haiku, Sara! Love, Carolyn
