The Boy's of the Forest

Deep in Borneo The myth was broken No headhunters did i find But in the morning i was awoken Some tribal people Near a plateau crest Have finally spotted The boy's of the forest I had heard they existed For many years In forests so deep Away from modern tears These boy's are so different On their back they have wings With birds of paradise they sit And they speak through sings From the reports i hear They look like you and me And no wonder you ask How can that be At sometime long ago An evolutionary fork Has taken a different path While, maybe others did abort Is there a reason Why they have lasted the pace Are they the future Of our human race On these beautiful islands Creatures of old, undiscovered Hidden for reasons In greened canopy covers Today i travel To this plateau crest To glimpse these boy's of the forest For them, their presence will rest http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/fantasy-3.php

Interesting tale. I don't think that we'll sprout wings even though it would be fun to fly at a low altitude without getting sick and get a bird's eye view of everything. Sara
