The Bachelor Spectacular

Shimmering upon the evening skies
Iridescent flickerings beneath this moonlit night
Magical this scene before my eyes
Smiling like a crescent with a firefly in tow
Laughing as...

A Lion Looms Listless
A cold lion roams, doctrinaire and sterile,
The expanse of Africa offers him no sanctuary, the Saringehti no salvation,
He can only smell the scent of his pride now, his cubs shun him,
