The Lion And The Gypsy Poem by Matthew Buchwald

The Lion And The Gypsy

Rating: 4.8


For twenty miles a lion followed her
Through the lonely desert
While she played on the mandolin, a sad song
And drank wine from a jar.
And then she lay down to take her rest
Upon the cold hard ground.

The lion silently watched over her
Wondering if she knew
How the mean-hearted moon was watching too,
So he guarded her till day.
When she awakened, the moon had fled
And the lion wandered away.
