The Rare Animal

Leaves crumble
Twigs crack
Look at that
The animal
Graceful like a ballerina
Look how it jumps from tree to tree
It’s running, free as a bird
Not a care in the world.
Boom!
The danger roars.
It was like being in her jungle, but different
Smaller and less freedom
She wished it was her jungle
She wished it was yesterday.
