Hyenas

Premium Member Waking Up Fast In Serengeti

It's a Serengeti Kind of Thing
The lion gently lies down upon the grass With great caution he surveys the vast plains ahead of him What will he have for his noonday snack? What will he have for breakfast tomorrow too? He spots a hyena and a resting zebra He contemplates the two choices… "tsk…tsk…tsk…eenie, meanie, miney, moe!" "Which one should I choose?" The zebra looks so inviting...

Wild Kissing Turkeys of the Serengeti
If you should ever come to visit me I want you to be ready, For the view that I have right outside my room of the plains of the Serengeti. From my window I can view some of nature’s most exotic creatures, A sampling that it seems is so unique each comes with special features. Today from my window I can see a herd...

Serengeti
a stampede of memories flood the plain fearful of the hidden assassin that time itself reveals their skins, thick with the dead callous accusations and conversations aired frequently in public brambles envelop them, ripping flesh but the stalker waits silently until enough blood has been spilled...
