I dance in the boughs of the Sycamore tree,
I paddle with the Ducks,
I sit the makeshift castle of the Osprey,
I burrow with the Fox,
I glide the plains with the brazen Bison’s herd,
I graze them with the Cows,
Found upon the vacant north Scottish Highlands,
You need not ask me how,
I traverse the depths with labored Tuna schools,
I ride the current far,
I stow away in shells with the Hermit Crabs,
Washed upon the foamy shore,
I squawk and squabble with the Goose and Gander,
Touring the trees with Apes,
I rummage the woods with the growling Grizzly,
My God how much he ate,
I roam the safari grasses with the Lions,
I tried my hand to roar,
I stew in the muck dear Hippopotamus,
I lay with the Hyena and glibly snore,
I gaze upon the redolent Stranger’s face,
I find myself away,
I find myself at home,
Amongst the beasts in the streets, I walk on alone.
