In Awe

Guest Post From Ubong Akpabio

I am enthralled by
The growing
Greenness that
Surrounds my world.

I am enthused by
The soft notes sung
Every morning and
Evening by my friends
With wings and beaks 
As they perch on trees 
Above my head.

I am amused by
The slippery champions
With golds at
Swimming competitions

I am moved at
The sight of those
Thick mass of flesh
Terrorising the jungle
On four legs and
With the tusks that
Keep foes at bay.

I am lost in
Appreciation at the
Sight of me ordering
These awesome beings.

In awe I stand 
Tall above all 
In awe I stand 
With outstretched arms
In awe I stand 
the king in his domain!
