Premium Member Savanna Tells Fortunes At the Fair
Savanna had the prettiest blue-black hair Azure ebony, some call these fat ringlets I watch her mesmerize the crowd She is the quintessential fortune teller Most want her attention – men and women She has the best predictions, Nothing gloomy or dire No terrifying warnings Her fortunes are given to the fairgoers lovingly Her kindness is as prominent as her beauty People feel her star...

Premium Member Savanna Versus Aunt Vee
Savanna was on this earth eight years. She stood up for her friends, danced ballet, Jumped out of an airplane with her dad. Her laugh was excruciatingly wonderful Almost everyone who met her enjoyed something She was an artist, a painter, a cartoonist, a story teller. She left twenty-one first cousins to mourn her. Cancer took her away from them two weeks...

Premium Member Savanna Song
Have you heard? The old bull elephant has left the herd With a shuffling gait and weary eye Underneath the savanna sky Wandering off all alone The Sun had spoken It was time to come home Can't you see? The old bull elephant is finally free His battle-scarred and furrowed hide Concealed the pain that raged inside Off he went so dignified Tusks held high...

Premium Member African Savanna Cheetah Vs the Wildebeest
I FEAST MY EYES UPON A HEARD. I LAY AND WAIT WITHOUT A WORD. SLOWLY, SLOWLY, I MADE MY WAY. THE WILDEBEEST WILL BE MY PREY. I SELECTED A FEW, AND THEN DOWN TO ONE. LEAPED INTO ACTION AND STARTED TO RUN. I SHORTENED MY DISTANCE WITH EVERY STRIDE. IT TRIED TO ESCAPE BY GOING WIDE. I ADJUSTED MY SPEED AND CHANGED MY...

Premium Member Savanna Night
Savannah Night There was an uneasy feeling that night on the savannah. The creatures were jumpy as they huddled and grazed. Startling at each new sound, one stamps its foot and the vast herd flees, from what they are unsure. The lions creep through the long grass setting an ambush. The first pair's job to spook the herd now is done. The...

Savanna Mind
Steel mountains tower over ancient minds The mismatched soul anachronism Instincts progressively lagging behind Primitive brain sees a deep red cataclysm Ghostly mastodons stalk the fluorescent plain A daunting checklist of tasks today Frigid rivers to be crossed in your brain Endless list of invisible foes you must slay A war without coffins, blood, or...
