Safari

I went to Mombasa

I did not see rain

there is drought in Amboseli

elephants are dying

wildebeests zebras Maasai giraffe

🦒🐘🦒🐘🦒🐘🦒🐘🦒🐘🦒🐘

I went to Maasai land

I did not see a bow

only spears and panga

arrows used to kill

when the loins attack

🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆

I went to Maasai Mara

to see the wildlife

thunderstorms on the horizon

got wet in the landrover

viewed a perfect rainbow

🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈

_____________

dVerse prompt to use a threesome. My choice is rain, bow and rainbow.

Watching Ravens in Alaska

My daughter and I in Alaska

visit a raven sanctuary

many ravens are protected inside

a huge cage and outside

are many more ravens

who are not caged

free to come and go

to find their own food

A metaphor of raven

that day as mother and daughter

stood seeking a wildlife experience

in Anchorage after the snow had melted

watching ravens

their caw and sharp deep-throated

guttural sound

which one are you?
