The bright light is onHuman footsteps thump closer
A night raccoon flees
One hoot, anotherThe owl comes nearer, now…

While the moon shines bright
Frogs near the blue pondFrogs sitting on lily pads
Frogs are everywhere
WhiteHave you ever heard the
term?“ As white as snow.”
You could say that for a snowy owl
how do you think it got its name?
Your eyes must be those of an eagle
to spot the snowiest against the snow.
They are giant snowflakesfalling up instead of down.They soar at night, but that
is their way.
You will never see a black snowy owl
just as never black snow.Their scientific name is
Nyctea Scandiaca.But that is not necessary to
know.
To hide from predators Is the advantage
To be as white as snow.
SilverSilver, a streak flies
from the blue.A dolphin squeaks, her
slender shaperises and drops into the
sea.A silver moon shines
brightcontrolling the
crashing, thundering waves.
Silver shines a husky’s coat
his green eyes so startling.
The glossy fur, tempting
waiting for a pat or stroke.
Silver on the Great Gray’s
when the moon shines on their feathers.
As they take powerful strokes..
Swoosh.... Swoosh... Swoosh.

Introducing...If a zebra and a horse met,
to each other what would they say?“ Howdy,” Or “ Isn’t it a nice day?”
Would the zebra be scared of the bridle?Or the horse stunned by the stripes?
Or would they get into millions of fights?? Do you know the only way to know?
Get a zebra and introduce him to a horse!
We are..Striped, spotless, smart!
Millions, Zillions of stripes!That confuse our enemy!
We’re awesome! We’re fast!
We’re white!We’re black!
We start with ZWe end with A
Zebras? Zebras! Zebras?!
I AM
I am a brave and powerful lionI wonder if any one bears more power than meI hear the rustle of the grass landsI see utter respect from other lionsI want to be prepared for every eventI am a brave and powerful lionI pretend that man is not a threatI feel grateful for every single piece of preyI touch the golden light of the sunI worry that man will destroy my pride ( A pride is a pack of lions)I cry for my lost mother killed by manI am a brave and powerful lionI understand the disasters of sickness I say to be grateful for everythingI dream to take revenge on man for killing my motherI try to support the pride the best I canI hope to drive man out foreverI am a brave and powerful lion
DINOSAURS
Dinosaurs roarSome of them soar
But dinosaurs aren’t here any more.
T. Rex ripping into fleshFor that food, he aren’t charged any cesh
If he lived now, we’d all be mesh.
Pteranadon so high soarYou can’t see him anymore
Yeah sure, he’s a model in storeBut ptreanadon aren’t here any more
Diplodocus, that means Double BeamWhere he got that name, I won’t dream
Extinct is what he seem.
Dinosaurs used to roarSome of them used to soar
But now they are fossils in the Earth’s core!
Polar Bears Polar bears are big and whiteThey shelter in homes of ice
To keep warm they snuggle tightEating seals, and catching fish
They stare at the stars all night
SealsSeals have to be aware
And be careful witch breathing hole they chooseOr they’ll be eaten by a bear
They give birth to their young on icy banks Some are endangered, but at the zoo they’re given lots of care
Perfect
On your sofa
Obedient
Dainty
