Hunter

I fly up so high floating in the sky watching below for my prey If they knew they'd fear for them death is near This is part of natures way I make my attack hit the water smack With my talons grab on tight The pike in my grip it will never slip It is trapped within my might Trying a form Dr. Ram's explained called an "Alouette" 557557 aabccb
