The Undaunted
THE UNDAUNTED
The roar of the pride silence no cricket
The wise knows the breeze is never daunted
When the wind joins force wth the rain
Threatening the palm tree to shed its fronts
For decades it has waded scores of such
Stronger and taller the trunk has grown
I'm a god among the gods
My breath makes the galaxies shiver
Death scares for its life at my anger
I am the undaunted
The tricky laughter never fades out from caged hyena
No matter the folds on hare's limbs
The stretch is unravelled in a fox's chase
I am the air
In my stroll I am wind
In my race i am storm
I bathe your skin in a cool day
If I raid the streets
I give wings to the sands and make them fly
If I stage a dance upon the ocean
I raised a troupe of standing waters
Then I swallow loaded vessel
And make them moor in my deep belly
I am the undaunted
I am water, in my calmness
I adorn your yard and bear a pet name pool
When i rage, i am a hurricane
Call me Caterina or Dorian
I am still me
I bond with my likes
I shake the groung on my enemies
I make them tremble
Call me a fire when calm
You will know my name when on rampage
I am the undaunted
