JEOPARDY

In a jeopardy, they survive
do not know, if tomorrow they live?
Vagabonds they were and now they sleep
Still, they keep, missing the hunt leap
Their prey, the deer’s bison’s and rabbits are missing
Its a drought of the taste, they have been wanting
The humans have killed their food
And they have scarcity to eat or to feed
We want to save them,

From their peril which we have incurred upon
and now we keep a vigil,

To bring them the days of glory and bright
And they gaze in melancholy, the days ahead
They lie keeping an eye on their cubs in fright
Wondering at the brutal ways of the human head
