A rose is as delicate as the wind,
While however,
A lion is fearless
It keeps its ground,
Rooted like a tree,
And when it roars,
The dirt floor
Rumbles beneath

But sometimes
It’s hard
To be
Fearless

A lizard is quick
But
Runs from you
A lizard is
Aware
But afraid
Quiet
But camouflaged
The thing about lizards
Is that
They can regrow
And start over
Their tail
And their
Tale
A lion
Rough as a vine
Tough as time
Will stand its ground
