Rare the sight

spilleronsheet

Soundly asleep 

was a hare 

running forever 

Don’t know for how long

 

A race of 

hare and tortoise 

no, its not 

its called a race of life 

struggle for being a king

 

soundly asleep

why do you need to poke it around

in skin of sheep

a lion was sleeping around 

 

how long will you test its limit 

like a volcano it shall erupt 

like tornadoes it shall engulf 

and like a tsunami it shall swallow 

 

beware of lion around 

even though its fall

it is inherited to be king

the demean it has been carrying around 

 

 

if today he ignores

let go the leap

do you think 

it won’t hunt around 

beware of the sleeping lion 

rare sight of lion 

wandering in the city lights 

left its jungle long ago…..

Time awaits its return one day….
