Zebra in the wild

Zebra in the wild

A Poem by MPetersPoems&shortstories
"

about a zebra

"

Zebra in the wild

I am one of a kind

Four legged

Black and white

We move together and not easy to find

Only in the wild

In the untamed

Where we travel many miles

In grass and trees untouched

There behind the brush

Some resting some

Chewing grass

Will you find us

The famed Zebra

There is none with stripes like us

We look alike

But I have a darker

Patch than my two

Brothers and cousins

2 years old now

The forest has been my home

All that I know

Nature, birds, trees

Flowers that blossom

I am part of the nature

Today we travel for food

Tomorrow for the river, I like the river

The water on my back makes me quiver

Today is tomorrow

And I am neck deep in

The rushing stream

A hippo lifts its head

And wiggles its ears

I can see you

I can see you too I say in

Defiance,Splash! A crocodile draws itself into the water bed

Skreep!! At a distance

Birds fly out of the forest trees

My sharp eyes see a snake

its cought a bird

Life in the forest in

The wild is, a life of prey

The hunted is a hunter

And the hunter is hunted

But meanwhile

The water feels good

Keeps me in the mood

Soon I chew some water weeds

And grass leaves . this keep me healthy and strong

The sun is up ahead, warm

Cousin jumps suddenly

We are warned, a lion lurks near

A lion we fear run

At the hill, where the

Grass is evergreen and lash, we lay

 

Dusk darkness, stars gaze down

We gaze up

We count the stars

We see their sign

Some are like a Zebra

Some like libra

The zodiac libra

Tomorrow is tomorrow

We do what we like

We are freee

We have all the frost and wild to be….
