JUNGLE
Brown bird sweeping down
A tall, white barked jungle tree
Is its resting place
.
.
.
Holding down a branch
A body of fire ants
Bite into my skin
.
.
Chirping cicadas
Beside river with no name
A long way back home
.
.
A frog on the trail –
Dead leaves on the jungle path
Look quite similar
Take care of yourself!
The doves in the high palm trees
Mock your insect bites
.
.
Growing on a rock
A single tree withstands the
harshness of the sea
