lightening arcs ignites husk grasses
embalmed shades dehydration stalks
Serengeti electric awaits rebirth rains
plasma darts strung in cloud mass
fiery reds purples illuminate pulse
wind shifting ever changing skies
lightning bolts dance above cityscape
define rainstorms in waiting Serengeti
where lions elephants rains welcome
patterns of life death adaptation migration
greet climate flora fauna as free wildebeest
a million strong 200,000 zebra flow south
herd ant dots intermix with gazelle giraffe
free range over horizons in shift mind eye
backdrop species impala waterbuck baboon
interchange with warthog topi eland troops
of monkey 400 species of birds breeze by
concrete zoos lack inspiring palette textures
Serengeti dark runs in dice migration tides
endless plains bleed terrestrial mammal flux
tsetse fly populations plague blood feast
Serengeti diverse life masquerade mask wears
habitats survival teems through riverine forests
circles swamps kopjes woodlands grasslands
