The Lizard I stood by the window and looked outside And spied the lizard so bravely glide From up the hill the bold lizard launches To touch down safely on the Bauhinia's branches And in case you think I'm talking crap That cute lizard has a wing-like web In my garden it plays hide and seek With lots of insects and bugs to pick Butterflies, beetles and the bumble-bee Amongst lily, hibiscus and morning glory Dragon-flies, ants and the ladybird Among the flowers,leaves and dirt When I get near the lizard remains still Just like it would when going for the kill With its brown colour and tail like a twig To disguise itself, it doesn't need a wig In my Bauhinia bush and the "chiku" tree The brash young lizard simply runs free One morning last week as I dig and hoe And admire the flowers and watch them grow Among the sugar cane, the lizard did hide But, fast like lightning, the golden snake strike With the lizard in its mouth, the snake I sight As a snake's breakfast was the poor lizard's plight Goodbye my friend for I've been blessed You're the first flying lizard I've ever met Lee   Live today as if it is your last For tomorrow will soon be in the past |

Nice......... reminds me of all the beautiful nature that is out there.......... only I can't see it cos there's monsoon rain beating down. The nice thing about the rain is that 2 mynah birds are sheltering on my windowsill.
