Around them more of a group surround

Some nearer to one than another might be,

An otter stretches on the ground

Inching farther away while trying to remain close,

The penguin turns a somersault

Halfway in between,

A bird flaps up above staying out of reach

Alighting on a branch not far away,

A wolf watches from nearby

Grinning all the while,

And a mouse is swallowed by a snake

That takes him far away,

One that wishes to protect

Defends himself too well,

There’s a bear that rests in a cavern

Sitting in the background,

As noble of birth keeps one

Changing his mind,

While a fish cannot decide

If it should take the stream or stay in the river,

All of them connect

In one way or another,

The question is…

Will they stay,

Or shall they disappear

From the portrait all together,

Leaving it bare and still

With no one in it anymore.

Will the falcon have to look

And cry?


Hey, why not add some more!? Of course I know too many people to have them all portrayed in here. And my question is about up and coming college.

... me dislike the new formatting stuff...

Please R&R

EF
