Jack Ellison Poet Limerick

Survival of the Fittest

Watched a nature program about Africa last night
Bout the animals that roam free, what a glorious sight
Survival of the fittest
Can make us grimace
As the prey succumbs in a fight for their life

Tom Cunningham December 17, 2021 at 11:28 AM Love those wildlife programmes, saw a giraffe boot a lion once and sent him sprawling and got away, I was cheering him on. Tom Jack Ellison December 17, 2021 at 11:31 AM I always cheer for the underdog!!! How about you? Cheers!

L Milton Hankins December 17, 2021 at 9:54 AM Indeed. They must kill to survive. But, why oh why, do I always root for the underdog? I can't figure that out. Why can't I just observe and realize the ways of nature are absolutely necessary to everything's survival! Jack Ellison December 17, 2021 at 10:40 AM I totally agree Milt!!! The way of nature! Humans have a similar tendency but not as extreme!!!
