Okapi by tpia: 5:20pm On Sep 12, 2008 |
[center][/center] Okapi You gaze warily at the camera Do you know What it is? A window to the outside world A world curious to know you Millions waiting To see you The real you Fifty years of solitude Are ended! Now we see you In your shy glory So you’re very real Even though your relatives Are scattered In distant lands Diluted versions Of the myth Now tamed Not mysterious Like you A zebra, a horse and an antelope All mixed together As one Okapi. Keep looking, With your subtly gentle but fierce No, intelligent gaze Into the world Always longing to know you. |

Expressive poem. In what language is that animal called "Okapi"? By the way is that a deer? |
